Woolf Works - BLU-RAY

Virginia Woolf defied the false order of narrative conventions to depict a heightened, startling and poignant reality. Woolf Works recreates the synaesthetic collision ofform and substance in her writings. Each of the three acts springs from one of Woolf's landmark novels Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves - but these inspirations are also enmeshed with elements from her letters, essays and diaries. Woolf Works expresses the heart of an artistic life driven to discover a freer, uniquely modern realism, and brings to life Woolf's world of 'granite and rainbow', where human beings are at once both physical body and uncontained essence. Woolf Works (2015) was Wayne McGregor's first full-length work for The Royal Ballet. InchAt it's creation in 2015, Woolf Works felt like a breakthrough for choreographer Wayne McGregor, adding a new emotional weight to his athletic force and fascination with technology. In this first revival, it's even stronger, with Alessandra Ferri luminous as the Virginia Woolf figure... It's a thoughtful, heartfelt performance in a ballet that is both intelligent and tender.Inch (The Independent 4 Stars)'Since it's premiere in 2015, Wayne McGregor's first full-length ballet has won the 2015 Critics' Circle award for best classical choreography and the 2016 Olivier Award for best new dance production, while it's star, the fiftysomething ballerina Alessandra Ferri, has won an Olivier for outstanding achievement in dance.

When Joe Bonamassa took the stage at Royal Albert Hall in May 2009, he fulfilled a dream he'd held since first picking up a guitar as a kid in upstate New York. The sold-out concert fresh off the of his #1 album the Ballad of John Henry marked Bonamassa's headlining debut at arguably the most prestigious concert venue in the world. May 4, 2009 was a day 20 years in the making, says Bonamassa. I have never been so honored in my life. It was truly larger than the sum of it's parts. This Double DVD set, which also features an exclusive interview and behind-the-scenes footage with Bonamassa, presents that magical night in full for posterity, and for all the fans that couldn't be among the roughly 5, 000 concert goers filling the seats. The twelve camera high definition, surround sound shoot was produced by Bonamassa's longtime collaborator Kevin Shirley.
