Press Quotes
- "K626 Stubern grace, is most becoming to Mozart" Rosita Boisseau / Le Monde
- "...Though K626 defied God, death and maybe Mozart, it remains a significant work for its well-crafted phrases and its full exploration of ideas rather than just its rebelliousness. ... In K626 Gat communicated a secular prayer, one without entreaties to the beyond and through a spirit of someone very alive. Like Mozart in his healthy prime, Gat revels in his rebellion. Here is a choreography who knows how to bend tradition with craft." / Ballet Magazine by Rachel Straus read more
