The Concert
Chopin/Robbins


Robbins turned to Chopin as he sought to express the truth of human relationships. After years of spectacular Broadway success, Dances at a Gathering marked Robbins’ magnificent return to the ballet stage. It was and remains a landmark for its sustained invention, unstressed virtuosity, and constantly shifting emotions. Again, Robbins turned to Chopin for Other Dances, a pas de deux renowned for its abundant brio. In 1956, The Concert set the standard for just how funny a ballet could be. If you love the theater, you’ll adore The Concert’s cast of feisty theatergoers, officious staff, and prima donnas who gather at an unforgettable piano recital.
