Praised as a "stellar, haunting work" by The New York Times, Alexei Ratmansky's powerfully affecting exploration of grief embodies the isolation of a father following the loss of his child in the midst of the Russia-Ukraine war.

Alexei Ratmansky’s Solitude is his seventh work for New York City Ballet. Set to the Third Movement (Funeral March) from Symphony No. 1, and the Fourth Movement (Adagietto) from Symphony No. 5 by Gustav Mahler, the ballet features costume and scenic design by Moritz Junge, and lighting by Mark Stanley.

22 Minutes

Solitude

In Alexei Ratmansky's Solitude, a solo for Principal Dancer Joseph Gordon emerges as the ballet's anchor—a fitting centerpiece that echoes its title.
