Originally choreographed for San Francisco Ballet in 2002, Christopher Wheeldon’s Continuum moves four couples through shifting moods in a poignant reflection of its György Ligeti piano score.
Created for San Francisco Ballet in 2002, Christopher Wheeldon’s Continuum joined the New York City Ballet repertory in the spring of 2026. The ballet followed Polyphonia, created for NYCB in 2001, as the second of three neoclassical works that Wheeldon choreographed to music by György Ligeti, who developed micropolyphony, a type of musical texture involving the use of sustained dissonant chords that shift slowly over time. (The third ballet was Morphoses, also created for NYCB, in 2002.) Continuum, like Polyphonia, is a work for eight dancers set to ten piano pieces by Ligeti.
