Dust (ballet)

It marked the first time Khan worked with a ballet company, and premiered on 2 April 2014 at the Barbican Centre, London.

For the mixed bill, Rojo said she chose choreographers who are British and from different backgrounds, including Khan, who was only trained in contemporary dance and Kathak.

Though Khan had previously rejected all invitations from ballet companies, he accepted Rojo's offer, due to her "passion" and "vision".

For the final section, she wrote a song with lyrics from the poem "In Flanders Fields" , sung by counter tenor Jonathan Peter Kenny.

She also used a recording of WWI soldier Edward Dwyer describing the war and singing "we’re here because we’re here" to the melody of "Auld Lang Syne".
