SWOONING ELEGANCE, BOLD INSOUCIANCE, AND EXHILARATING GRANDEUR
Balanchine’s affection and refined facility for glamour find their ultimate articulation in this evening-length tour of his musical affinities. Often interpreted as representations of French, American, and Russian dance idioms, respectively, each act strikes a unique tone: the luxurious poetry of Emeralds, the cool and snappy command of Rubies, and the regal sophistication of Diamonds, each reflected in evocative gemstone-hued costumes designed by Barbara Karinska.
FEB 14 Sunday matinee begins at 2 PM; specially added Sunday evening performance begins at 7 PM.
