Episode notes

This weekend, James Wilton Dance are performing at Dance City Newcastle, the Four Seasons. Our Science Lead, Ellie Macdonald, chats to James Wilton about what inspiration the Universe has had on this piece. Using Max Richter’s recomposed version of Vivaldi’s seminal work The Four Seasons James Wilton Dance has created a work of immense physicality, driving energy and sweeping beauty. "We wanted to do something that moved away from the traditional Earth Seasons, and look at something more spacey astronomical, and looking at the timeline of the Universe, so we have linked each season to a stage of the Universe" - James Wilton Get your tickets now at https://www.dancecity.co.uk/performance/198300/the-four-seasons-james-wilton-dance/
