Jordan Town - The Errollyn Wallen Company (page 58)
Drams a wee one
Venue C Underground (88)
Address Niddry St South, off Cowgate, 225 5105

An extended and wholly superior music video. Errollyn Wallen plays piano and sings. Her voice is rich, and supported by a string quartet she creates a sublime ethereal flow of music.

Behind is a flow of images by The Honey Brothers. This forms the backdrop to a series of pieces by Royal Ballet dancer Tom Sapsford. It is a rare delight to see a dancer of such ability up close. Sapsford is strong yet graceful, and his dancing fluently mixes sensuous flow with moments of stillness.

Jordan Town is a treat for the eyes and ears. Superb on many levels.

Run ends 18 Aug. Tickets £8 (£6). CDs on sale at the box office.
