Breiner’s imagination runs wild with In Honour Of. Drawn from Georges Pelēcis’ composition In Honour of Henry Purcell, this opus explores the legacy of artistic heritage. Following a path carved by previous generations of artists, an athletic trio of dancers is pushed to its physical and emotional limits in this abstract ballet, illustrating the compelling need to create that grips artists.
