Celebrating Serenade
As the very first ballet George Balanchine choreographed in America, Serenade holds immeasurable weight not only in New York City Ballet’s history, but also in the development of ballet in this country. With its iconic opening and romantic Tschaikovsky score, Serenade is one of the signature works of the Company’s repertory. Join us as we explore this memorable masterpiece with a special presentation featuring excerpts from the ballet and insights from the artists who perform it.

Originating Roles
George Balanchine founded NYCB on the principle of choreographic innovation, a legacy that lives on as the Company continues to commission new works each year. In the last decade alone, more than 50 ballets have premiered at NYCB and generations of dancers have had the opportunity to contribute to the creative process. Hear from today’s dancers as they share what it’s like to have work created on them, and see excerpts from some of the Company’s vast repertory of 21^st century choreography.
