Video: Scottish Ballet Autumn Season 2012 trailer

With last night the opening night of Scottish Ballet’s Autumn Season, of which Scotsman.com are proud media partners, take a look at the trailer for the trilogy of performances.

The dance company’s Autumn Season 2012 is a trio of pieces: fresh from its world premiere at the Cultural Olympiad this summer, Run For It, choreographed by Martin Lawrance with a set by Turner Prize winner Martin Boyce, is inspired by the athleticism of the Olympic Games; Workwithinwork by William Forsythe is a playful study of the possibilities of motion; and 5 Tangos by Hans Van Manen is a fiery work combining the precision and control of classical ballet with the drama of the tango.
