I’ve photographed many, many wonderful performances by Cambridge Contemporary Dance, the most impressive being a gala performance and publicity shoot for Light Matter, in Cambridge University’s Senate House. The dance company was asked to perform in Sidney Sussex’s chapel for Coty Prestige’s conference, as part of the post-prandial evening entertainment, and as always, they asked me to come and photograph it. Needless to say, the six dancers’ performances were as beautiful as ever, even one that was entirely improvised!
The altarpiece is by Venetian painter Pittoni, and features the blue and red gowns often found in his paintings.
