Jean Butler's last Danspace commission, hurry (2013), invoked the choreographer's celebrated past in Irish Step Dance. Her new duet, this is an Irish dance, created with Belfast based cellist Neil Martin further unearths her roots by returning to the relationship between live music and movement as the compositional departure point for the work.
