Così fan tutte, Grange Festival Opera, 10 June 2023
Fiordiligi – Samantha Clarke Dorabella – Kitty Whately Guglielmo – Nicholas Lester Ferrando – Alessandro Fisher Despina – Carolina Lippo Don Alfonso – Christian Senn Martin Lloyd-Evans (director) Dick Bird (designs) Johanna Town (lighting) Grange Festival Chorus (chorus master: Tom Primrose) Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra Kirill Karabits (conductor) Guglielmo (Nicholas Lester), Dorabella (Kitty Whately), Fiordiligi (Samantha Clarke), Ferrando (Alessandro Fisher)Images: Craig Fuller To Hampshire and The Grange for the second of what should for me be three productions of Così fan tutte this summer.

Recent performances by the National Youth Dance Company and the Royal Ballet School showcased dancers whose technique, physical commitment and emotional maturity belie their ageThe National Youth Dance Company (NYDC) is a remarkable project: an ever-changing group of dancers, mostly aged 16-19, who work with a different choreographer each year to develop a new performance. It’s a diverse company that integrates different body shapes, including disabled dancers, and different dance trainings, and they all bring impressive technique, full-on energy and a great sense of professionalism to the stage.This year’s show is Quartiers Paradis by choreographer Alesandra Seutin (whose background includes a specialism in contemporary African dance), and takes place at Bold Tendencies, a very hip performance space in a south London multi-Storey car park – just the right place for such a youthful, raw, underground happening.
