REVIEW HAFLA April 2005
In April 2005, Michaella produced, directed and choreographed
HAFLA, a unique celebration exploring musical contrasts between
East and West through the medium of the world's most sensual
performance art.

photo gallery and programme for the evening's production:

For probably the first time, the insistent oriental rhythms
of the tabla accompanied the classical harmonies of the cello.
To this unique combination, Michaella brought her inimitable
art to what was widely seen as a revelatory performance.
Jamie Walton, one of the rising international cellists of
his generation, began with the plaintive tones of Ravel's
Kaddish; instantly Jamie's rich sound animated Michaella in
a graceful and affecting dance that completely embodied this
traditional prayer.
