Set against an inspired selection of some of Shostakovich's most memorable music, this is one of the finest 'Shakespeare ballets' and not to be missed. 'The Taming of the Shrew conveys the idea that there's someone for everyone, irrespective of who or what you are. Who can judge a relationship with an outside eye? Love works in mysterious ways, and it isn't for us to question it.' (Jean-Christophe Maillot)." -- Contracoberta
