Bella Figura is a one-act ballet by Jirí Kylián, first presented in 1995 by Nederlands Dans Theater.



This performance captures the masterful choreography, flowing as if it inhabits the music, while the dance space is strikingly defined by light and darkness, with black drapes used to frame the dancers in unusual ways.



Music includes compositions by Vivaldi, Giuseppe Torelli and Lukas Foss.
