Rambert and Garsington Opera present a brand new staging of Joseph Haydn’s most famous and enduring masterpiece, The Creation.

The Creation‘s lyrical arias and monumental choruses show off one of the greatest classical composers at the peak of his powers. This new staging marries dance to this wonderful music, with designs by internationally celebrated artist Pablo Bronstein reflecting the wit and majesty of Haydn’s score. Rambert Artistic Director Mark Baldwin choreographs a cast of over 50 dancers from Rambert and the Rambert School, joined on stage by 70 musicians for a performance on a truly grand scale.

The Creation has its premiere at Garsington Opera, with their orchestra and chorus led by Artistic Director Douglas Boyd, performed in the spectacular setting of the Opera Pavillion at Wormsley in Buckinghamshire. At Sadler’s Wells in November 2016, the Rambert Orchestra and BBC Singers will be conducted by Paul Hoskins.
