Macmillan Celebrated Blu-ray

Macmillan Celebrated showcases three of Kenneth MacMillan's celebrated works: Danses concertantes, Different Drummer and Requiem. This diverse programme presents a glimpse into the choreographers' remarkable artistry, ranging from a vibrant abstract ballet to a deeply moving elegy.

Kenneth MacMillan (1929–92) was the leading choreographer of his generation. Renowned for his full-length dramatic works which dug deep into the human psyche, MacMillan’s creativity knew no bounds.
