The Guardian newspaper has published a series of corrections and clarifications for recent articles, addressing inaccuracies and providing updates to ensure factual accuracy in its reporting.
Correction on Alexander Whitley Dance Company Performance
In a review published on 20 March, titled "Tech-heavy spectacle overwhelms the humanity", it was incorrectly stated that the Alexander Whitley Dance Company's performance of The Rite of Spring at Sadler's Wells in London altered the score from Stravinsky's 1913 original. The Guardian clarifies that the production actually used the version performed by the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Gustavo Gimeno. This correction aims to set the record straight for readers interested in the artistic details of the performance.
