Featuring a variety of styles, Wheeldon’s Les Carillons is a romantic yet contemporary work and Robbins’ Moves, a dancer favorite, is performed completely in silence. The quirky and stylized choreography for Balanchine’s Stravinsky Violin Concerto is the perfect compliment to Stravinsky’s bold and breathtaking melodies.

WHEELDON/ROBBINS/BALANCHINE

  • Les Carillons

    • Music by: Georges Bizet
    • Choreography by: Christopher Wheeldon

    Set to Bizet’s vibrant L’Arlésienne Suites No. 1 and 2, Wheeldon weaves 20 dancers through a series of dances ranging from serene to stately in their emotional color.

  • Moves

    • Choreography by: Jerome Robbins

    Forgoing scenery, elaborate costumes, and even musical accompaniment, this ballet in silence enthralls with the unexpected intensity it evokes through movement alone.

  • Stravinsky Violin Concerto

    • Music by: Igor Stravinsky
    • Choreography by: George Balanchine
    • Principal Casting: June 1 Eve, June 2 Mat: Sterling Hyltin, Robert Fairchild, Maria Kowroski, TBD

    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.
