"Watson, all feet and hands, magnetic in his stage presence, made witty work of the phlegmatic variation."

"Edward Watson superbly mocking as Phlegmatic." Reviewed by Jenny Gilbert The Independent
"It brought a stunning interpretation of the phlegmatic variation from Edward Watson (his line, probing the limits of academic style, illuminates Balanchine’s forms)" Reviewed by Clement CrispFinancial Times
"Edward Watson looked shattered by this third work, having danced in all three, but his movement remained of the highest quality throughout. His solo with an especially sultry quartet of girls in The Four Temperaments showed a complete ease in the air." Reviewed by Dave PaxtonMusic OMH
