ALL ROBBINS 

Dances at a Gathering 

Dances at a Gathering
Music by Frédéric Chopin
Choreography by Jerome Robbins




 

 

West Side Story Suite 

West Side Story Suite
Music by Leonard Bernstein
Choreography by Jerome Robbins




 

Admired on both the ballet and Broadway stage, Jerome Robbins excelled at creating profound drama in his works. One of his most popular masterpieces, Dances at a Gathering distills the spectrum of human relations into the most natural of movements, endlessly spontaneous in their representation of community. A modern love story based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, West Side Story Suite brings audiences to the feuding streets of 1950s New York City with its crackling energy and heart-rending poignancy.

JEWELS 

Emeralds  Emeralds
Music by Gabriel Fauré
Choreography by George Balanchine




 

 

Rubies  Rubies
Music by Igor Stravinsky
Choreography by George Balanchine




 

 Diamonds Diamonds
Music by Peter Ilyitch Tschaikovsky
Choreography by George Balanchine




 

Inspired by a visit to Van Cleef & Arpels, Balanchine distills the brilliant facets of precious stones into a grand pyrotechnic display. Emeralds moves at Fauré's mesmerizing pace, while Rubies races like lightning through Stravinsky's jazz-inflected capriccio. With its symphonic Tschaikovsky score, Diamonds venerates the regality of Balanchine’s classical heritage.

February 25 - 28
