“Danser Ensemble…” presents – Matthew Gough
The last (but not least) of our seven dance artists to be introduced as part of our “Danser Ensemble…” Wales/Senegal project is Matthew Gough. This Go Digital project is a partnership between The Successors of the Mandingue and CIE Fatou Cisse supported by British Council Wales. Here is Matt’s improvisation on the solo piece composed by N’famady Kouyate, filmed at the Wales Millenium Centre, Cardiff, by Tim Short. Photo credit: Luke Stanton.
