“Namiko Gahier-Ogawa provided some highly effective, and quite abstract, movement for the chorus in the opening and closing scenes and ensured that the whole always looked as good as it sounded.”
“Our journey eastwards was aided by the samurai-styled movements of three dancers, choreographed with subtle nuance by Charlotte Edmonds, and the solemn, formal gestures of the Opera Holland Park Chorus — movement director, Namiko Gahier-Ogawa — were equally persuasive.”
