All neoclassical masterpieces, the five ballets on this program epitomize Balanchine’s streamlined approach to movement, music, and scenery.
A carefully-woven masterpiece of geometry and ingenuity, Stravinsky Violin Concerto is a work of symmetry and order on the outside, but the pair of orchestral arias at its core provides the inspiration for two of Balanchine's most unique pas de deux.
Coupled with Movements for Piano and Orchestra in performance, this streamlined leotard ballet arrests viewers with its formal beauty and simplicity.
A signature leotard ballet, Movements for Piano and Orchestra's dissonance and electric currents sweep on a wave of exacting precision.
This lively dance for a couple, set to onstage piano and violin accompaniment, ends with a poignant play on light and shadow.
Bold and breathtakingly jet-propelled, Symphony in Three Movements is a kinetic tour de force, striking for its simplicity and power.
