Notes J. S. Bach wrote these piano studies, Inventions & Sinfonias, between 1720 and 1723 to help instruct his son in the playing and handling of 2- and 3-part pieces. There are as many interpretations as there are pianists, as one can conclude by those recorded. Glenn Gould has even rearranged the order, mixing the 2 and 3 parts alternately. Mr. Robbins selected a dozen of all the pieces for this ballet.

Running Time 10′ 
Notes Debussy′s music, Prelude a l′Après-midi d′un Faune, was composed between 1892 and 1894. It was inspired by a poem of Mallarme′s which was begun in 1876. The poem describes the reveries of a faun around a real or imagined encounter with nymphs. In 1912 Nijinsky presented his famous ballet, drawing his ideas from many sources, including Greek sculpture and painting. This pas de deux, choreographed by Jerome Robbins, is a variation on these themes. It was first performed in 1953 by the New York City Ballet Company and is dedicated to Tanaquil Le Clercq for whom the ballet was choreographed.

American Theatre Laboratory 
0 
Genre WORKSHOPS 

Notes In 1966, disenchanted with the pressures of commercial theatre and influenced by the ideas of visionary directors like Peter Brook and Jerzy Grotowski, Jerome Robbins founded the American Theatre Lab to explore what his grant proposal called “total theatre”: a “poetic,” non-realistic meld of acting, dance, singing, performed by a group of actors and dancers in a closed workshop setting. For three years, with the help of seed money from the fledgling National Endowment for the Arts and assisted by Anna Sokolow, Leonard Bernstein, John Guare, and the young Robert Wilson, among others, Robbins worked with this group on a variety of exercises and projects, including a theater piece based on the Warren Commission’s report on the Kennedy assassination, which was presented alternately as a dramatized documentary and as a Noh play, complete with masks. But none of these efforts was given a public airing; and although the idea of a permanent rehearsal had seemed a good idea to Robbins at the beginning, three years without any closure left him “exhausted” and convinced (as he told the critic Clive Barnes) that “I just couldn’t go on that way.” ATL ceased functioning in 1968; but some of the ideas Robbins worked on there can be clearly seen (as he was the first to admit) in his 1972 ballet Watermill.

Notes In 1897 Debussy set to music some newly discovered ancient Greek Sapphic poems called Songs of Bilitis. The poems were published as translations by Pierre Louys, who subsequently admitted writing them himself. Debussy returned to the music material years later and reshaped some of them into piano pieces for four hands called Six Epigraphes Antiques. He wanted to orchestrate them and it was done by Ernest Ansermet in 1932. Syrinx for solo flute completes the score for the ballet. Like the Epigraphes and Afternoon of a Faun, Syrinx was inspired by French poetry about life and myths of Greek antiquity.

Notes The three poems of this song cycle were written by Evariste-Desire de Parny in 1787. The first describes the night tryst of two lovers. The second, a warning cry, relates the disastrous events of colonization. The third sings of the release of evening′s quiet languorousness. Ravel set them to music in 1926. One of the most striking aspects of the Chansons is the earthy immediacy of the words and how, in contrast, Ravel used such cool, elegant and minimum musical means to transform them into the art song form.

Running Time 44′ 
Notes In Central-European Jewish folklore, a dybbuk is a spirit, lost and restless, which enters and persists in the body of a living person. The body possessed acts and speaks with the voice and behavior of the dead one. The most famous treatment of this theme is S. Ansky′s play, The Dybbuk, renowned in its original Yiddish version and through many subsequent international productions. 

This ballet is not a retelling of Ansky′s play but uses it as a point of departure for a series of related dances concerning rituals and hallucinations which are present in the dark magico-religious ambience of the play and in the obsessions of its characters.

Portions of this ballet have also appeared as "The Dybbuk Variations" and "Suite of Dances".

Notes In 1945, Britten was asked to write for the British Ministry of Education′s documentary film, Instruments of the Orchestra (Op. 34). With text by Eric Crozier, the work consists of variations and a fugue on a rondeau from Henry Purcell′s incidental music for "Adelazar", of the "Moor′s Revenge", by Mrs. Aphra Behn. Each variation is played by a different instrument or group of instruments composing a contemporary symphonic orchestra. Consecutively, the four families of the band -- strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion -- are exploited in characteristic monologues and conversations. Finally, the piccolo initiates the great fugue which recapitulates Purcell′s noble theme.

Running Time 29' 
Notes The New York City Ballet presented its first production of ″Firebird″ in 1949 at the City Center Theater with scenery and costumes the eminent painter Marc Chagall had created following the original designs for Bolm′s choreography from 1945. In 1970 a new production was mounted to adapt to the larger proportions of the New York State Theater. The costumes, of extraordinary complexity and fantasy, were created by Madame Karinska from Chagall′s original designs. Chagall expressed his great pleasure at the devotion and inventiveness with which Madame Karinska interpreted his watercolor sketches in textiles, plastics, paint, and mineral materials. The choreography represents a collaboration between George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins, the latter being responsible for the episode with Kastchei the Wizard and his subjects. Balanchine entirely redesigned his dances in light of Marc Chagall′s designs. This ballet was conceived as Chagall accompanied by music and dance. 

Prince Ivan, the hunter, wanders into a magic wood and captures the Firebird. On her pleading, he frees her and she rewards him with a magic plume. Kastchei, the wizard, has enchanted the princess and her maidens but, with the aid of the Firebird′s feather, Prince Ivan rescues the maidens and marries the Princess amid great rejoicing.

Notes Ravel, at the peak of fame and popularity, had just returned from a triumphant tour of the United States when he began this concerto. 

Ravel wrote that the work was "a concerto in the strict sense, written in the spirit of Mozart and Saint-Saëns... I had intended to call this concerto a ′Divertissement', then it occurred to me that there was no need to do so because the very title ′Concerto′ should be sufficiently clear... In some ways, my concerto is not unlike my Violin Sonata; it uses certain effects borrowed from jazz, but only in moderation."

Notes On learning of the death of the young daughter of a close friend, Berg, who had a deep affection for the eighteen year old girl, was so overcome that he put aside his work on his opera "Lulu" and began composing a violin concerto which, in his own words, was "dedicated to an angel." The music is divided into programmatic sections. First, a portrait of the girl; next, her illness and death; lastly, her transfiguration. Also hidden within the composition are many autobiographical references to Berg himself. 

These events took place in the mid-thirties during the Nazi rise to power which, in Austria, left Berg more or less nationless and stripped of his position and security. Within four months of completing the orchestration of the concerto, Berg himself died without ever having heard it performed, leaving the last act of "Lulu" unfinished.

Notes Stravinsky used as material for "Les Noces" the ritualistic elements found in the ancient customs and traditions of Russian peasant weddings but reserved the right to use them with absolute freedom, paying little heed to ethnographical considerations. His purpose was not to reproduce the wedding or show a staged dramatization with descriptive music but rather to present a ritualized abstraction of its essences, customs, and tempers. 

The text is adapted from folk songs and popular verse, typical wedding remarks – clichés of conversations – but again, they are not used realistically but rather as a collage of the words spoken or sung during these traditional rites. The first half of the "scenic ceremony" deals with the preparations and revolves around religious elements. Alternating with these intense invocations and blessings are continual lamentations by the parents for the loss of their children and by the bride, against the matchmaker, on leaving home and on losing her virginity.

In the second half (the wedding feast), the grief and religious elements are forgotten in robust celebrations with food, drink, songs, toasts, boasts, bawdiness, rough jokes, etc.. A married couple is selected to warm the bed and finally the marriage is allowed to be consummated while all sit outside the nuptial chamber.

The composition is divided into four tableaus which run without interruption.

Later, in 1911, writing a scenario of his own, he added more pieces plus connective transitions. His scenario, charming and wittily detailed as written into the score itself, contains delightful invention. To the spellbound Sleeping Beauty (a character in a fairy tale by Perrault) he gives dreams of other fairy tale characters (also by Perrault or imitators). The ballet had its premiere in 1912 at the Theatre des Arts, Paris.

Notes Moves was created for Robbins′ Ballets: U.S.A. and had its world premiere at the Festival of Two Worlds in Spoleto, Italy in 1959. 

Whether a ballet tells a story or concerns itself with pure dance, its form is determined by the web of music on which it is composed according to the interpretations of the choreographer. The score conditions, supports, predicts, and establishes the dynamics, tempos and mood not only for the dance, but for the audience. The music acts as a base for the spectators′ responses to the happenings on stage and creates a pervasive atmosphere for reaction.

Moves severs that guidance and permits the audience to respond solely to the action of the dance, to become aware of the potential to gesture and to respond directly to the curiosity of movement, and to be released from the associations evoked by scenery, costumes, and music.

Notes "N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz" was first performed by Jerome Robbins′ Ballets: U.S.A. at the Festival of Two Worlds in Spoleto, Italy in June of 1958. Following are revised program notes from that production which concern the youth and dances of the late 50's. 

There has always been a tremendous amount of popular dancing in America. At this time, its vitality has reached a new high, developing and expanding in form and style from the major and basic contributions of the African-American and Latin-American. Because of a strong unconscious emotional kinship with those minority roots, teenagers particularly have popularized these dances. Feeling very much like a minority group in this threatening and explosive world, the young have so identified with the dynamics, kinetic impetus, the drives and ′coolness′ of today′s jazz steps that these dances have become an expression of our youths′ outlook and their attitudes toward the contemporary world around them, just as each era′s dance has significantly reflected the character of our changing world and a manner of dealing with it.

"N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz" is a formal, abstract ballet based on the kinds of movements, complexities of rhythms, expressions of relationships, and qualities of atmospheres found in today′s dance.

Notes In 1942 Prokofiev was living in Nalchik in the eastern Caucasus. Drawing material from the rich, strange and poignant folk music of that region, he composed his second string quartet. He described it as "the combination of the least known varieties of folk song with the most classical form of the quartet." 

The first movement follows the sonata form of exposition, development and recapitulation. The second is an adagio based on a Caucasian love song. The final movement derives from a loosely knit series of wild and free Caucasian dances.

Notes In a program note for stage performances of "Requiem Canticles" Stravinsky wrote: 

"I planned my 'Requiem Caticles' as an instrumental work originally, and I composed the threnody for wind instruments and muffled drums, now at the center of the work, first. Later I decided to use sentences (merely) from six texts of the traditional Requiem service, and at that time I conceived the triangulate instrumental frame of the string Prelude, wind-instrument Interlude, and percussion Postlude. The 'Requiem Canticles' are concert music, but the celebration of death is to be played in memory of a man of God, a man of the poor, a man of peace."

Notes One of the pleasures of attending a concert is the freedom to lose oneself in listening to the music. Quite often, unconsciously, mental pictures and images form, and the patterns and paths of these reveries are influenced by the music itself, or its program notes, or by the personal dreams, problems and fantasies of the listener. Chopin′s music in particular has been subject to fanciful ″program″ names such as the Butterfly Etude, the Minute Waltz, the Raindrop Prelude, etc..

Notes When opera was presented in Paris in the late Nineteenth Century, the composer was obliged to include a ballet at the beginning of the third act whether or not it had anything to do with the plot of the opera. Usually it didn′t but it gave the Jockey Club, a group of wealthy subscribers, a chance to look over their favorite beautiful ladies of the ballet at a convenient time of the evening and these patrons were attentively in their seats for the ballet, if not for the rest of the opera. The tradition of the third act divertissement was so firmly established that when Wagner put his ″Venusberg″ ballet at the very beginning of Act I of ″Tannhäuser″, there were such forcible protests by the Jockey Club that the whole opera was nearly withdrawn. 

Fortunately for us, Verdi was less revolutionary about Parisian conventions and composed many third Act opera ballets. Although seldom included in today′s productions, they contain some of the most delightful dance music of the period. For ″I Vespri Siciliani″, he devised a ballet called ″The Four Seasons″. His libretto called for Janus, the God of New Year, to inaugurate a series of dances by each of the seasons in turn. Verdi′s notes suggest such notions as ballerinas warming themselves in Winter by dancing, Spring bringing on warm breezes, indolent Summer ladies being surprised by an Autumnal faun, etc.. The present ballet follows his general plan. The original score is augmented by a few selections of his ballet music from ″I Lombardi″ and ″Il Trovatore″.

Notes Bach′s so-called "Goldberg Variations" was published in 1742 under the title "Area Mit Verschieden Veraenderungen". "Veraenderungen" is usually translated as variations, but it also means alterations or mutations. 

It is the only work of Bach′s in the structure of a Theme and Variations. However, it differs from most compositions of this nature in that the variations are not based on the melody but on the harmonic implications of the accompaniment of the theme, a sarabande that Bach wrote for his second wife.

Notes The score of ″Watermill″ stems mainly from the religious ceremonials and theatrical music of the Orient. It features the Shakuhachi, a bamboo flute used in the 13th Century in Japan, played mainly by Zen Buddhist priests whose compositions for the instrument still survive. The majority of these musical-religious works are contemplative evocations of nature and the seasons. 

The ballet itself is influenced by the music and theater of the East; however, its world, people, and events are not construed as Oriental.

Jerome Robbins | [orig. Jerome Rabinowitz] (born Oct. 11, 1918, New York, N.Y., U.S.—died July 29, 1998, New York City) U.S. dancer, choreographer, and director. He joined Ballet Theatre (later American Ballet Theatre) as a dancer in 1940. His first choreographic success was Fancy Free (set to a musical score by Leonard Bernstein), which was expanded into the musical On the Town (1944). He joined the NYCB in 1948 and soon became associate director (1950–59), creating many works for the company. For the Broadway stage he choreographed successful musicals such as The King and I (1951; film, 1956), West Side Story (1957; film, 1961), Gypsy (1959; television, 1993), and Fiddler on the Roof (1964). Returning to the NYCB, he was resident choreographer and ballet master (1969–83) and then codirector with Peter Martins until retiring in 1990. His choreography is marked by a blend of modern, academic, and popular dance styles in a variety of American idioms. www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1B1-376999.html Copyright 1994-2008 Britannica Concise Encyclopedia | From: Britannica Concise Encyclopedia | Date: 2007

Wednesday, April 30, 2008 7:30 PM SYMPHONIC BALANCHINE Symphony in C Bizet/Balanchine Symphony in Three Movements Stravinsky/Balanchine Western Symphony Kay/Balanchine No one delighted in grand ballets more than George Balanchine, and no one did it with greater variety. Symphony in C turned a long-lost Georges Bizet score into a masterpiece of regal, crystalline luminosity. Bold and jet-propelled, Symphony in Three Movements is a kinetic tour de force, striking for its simplicity and power. The frontier bravura of Western Symphony will warm your heart and the rousing, non-stop finale will leave you wanting more! Thursday, May 01, 2008 8:00 PM BERNSTEIN COLLABORATIONS Fancy Free Bernstein/Robbins Dybbuk Bernstein/Robbins West Side Story Suite Bernstein/Robbins American entertainment was never the same after Leonard Bernstein and Jerome Robbins took it to brilliant new heights. The New York of popular imagination would not exist without the comic genius of Fancy Free. Boisterous and beloved, it captures the essence and optimism of shore leave in the Big City. Carrying ancient Russian-Jewish culture in their bones, Bernstein and Robbins’ Dybbuk explores a mystical world of dreadful consequences and enduring passion. A Robbins retrospective would not be complete without the heart-rending poignancy of West Side Story Suite. No other theater piece is as well known and loved as this American classic. Friday, May 02, 2008 8:00 PM SEASONS Watermill Ito/Robbins The Four Seasons Verdi/Robbins All life has its seasons. Robbins’ Watermill is meditative, epic, and intense, and was a controversial sensation at its 1972 premiere. It is unlike any ballet you have ever seen, dwelling in memory, timelessness and the deeply personal quest for consequence. It glows from within as if a Japanese scroll painting has come to life. In vivid contrast stands The Four Seasons, one of Robbins’ jolliest romps. It translates the seasonal calendar into frosty flirtation, springtime awakening, sultry reverie, and a blow-you-away bacchanal, all set to Verdi’s vibrant melodies. Saturday, May 03, 2008 2:00 PM SYMPHONIC BALANCHINE Symphony in C Bizet/Balanchine Symphony in Three Movements Stravinsky/Balanchine Western Symphony Kay/Balanchine Saturday, May 03, 2008 8:00 PM SEASONS Watermill Ito/Robbins The Four Seasons Verdi/Robbins Sunday, May 04, 2008 3:00 PM BERNSTEIN COLLABORATIONS Fancy Free Bernstein/Robbins Dybbuk Bernstein/Robbins West Side Story Suite Bernstein/Robbins Tuesday, May 06, 2008 7:30 PM BERNSTEIN COLLABORATIONS Fancy Free Bernstein/Robbins Dybbuk Bernstein/Robbins West Side Story Suite Bernstein/Robbins Wednesday, May 07, 2008 7:30 PM SYMPHONIC BALANCHINE Symphony in C Bizet/Balanchine Symphony in Three Movements Stravinsky/Balanchine Western Symphony Kay/Balanchine Thursday, May 08, 2008 8:00 PM SEASONS Watermill Ito/Robbins The Four Seasons Verdi/Robbins Friday, May 09, 2008 8:00 PM RUSSIAN ROOTS Opus 19/The Dreamer Prokofiev/Robbins Andantino Tschaikovsky/Robbins Piano Pieces Tschaikovsky/Robbins Les Noces Stravinsky/Robbins Jerome Robbins’ Russian roots ran deep and this program puts them on abundant display. Andantino is a lilting pas de deux suffused with the sweetness and promise of youth. It is a gentle beauty. In Opus 19/The Dreamer, set to Prokofiev’s 1923 Violin Concerto, one can hear the surging tides of the Russian Revolution as a male protagonist pursues an elusive search. Like Andantino, Piano Pieces was a hit of the 1981 Tschaikovsky Festival. Playful and joyous, it is filled with the unmistakable exuberance of the Russian character. Les Noces (Weddings) closes the program. A monumental work of genius, Les Noces is primitive, overpowering and raw ritual. Requiring massive forces, this is the first time NYCB will fulfill Stravinsky and Robbins’ vision of Les Noces as it was originally conceived. It is the season’s must-see. Saturday, May 10, 2008 2:00 PM WORLD TOUR An American in Paris Gershwin/Wheeldon Valse Triste Sibelius/Martins The Chairman Dances Adams/Martins Bugaku Mayuzumi/Balanchine Russian Seasons Desyatnikov/Ratmansky NYCB takes you on a journey across the globe. You don’t have to be a Francophile to love the Tour de France, and there is nothing like Paris in the springtime, as the amusing An American in Paris proves. Jean Sibelius forged Finland’s national identify in music. In Valse Triste, his ardent melodies inspire a poignant portrait of remembered loss. China’s iconic grace and exotic mystery lie at the center of The Chairman Dances, a vibrantly–colored piece inspired by music from John Adams’ opera, Nixon in China. Like peeling the petals from a chrysanthemum, the Japanese-inspired Bugaku strips away ancient courtship conventions to reveal smoldering, explosive desire. The multi-hued Russian Seasons embraces life’s most important moments with a vivid and compelling humanity. Saturday, May 10, 2008 8:00 PM WORLD TOUR An American in Paris Gershwin/Wheeldon Valse Triste Sibelius/Martins The Chairman Dances Adams/Martins Bugaku Mayuzumi/Balanchine Russian Seasons Desyatnikov/Ratmansky Sunday, May 11, 2008 3:00 PM BERNSTEIN COLLABORATIONS Fancy Free Bernstein/Robbins Dybbuk Bernstein/Robbins West Side Story Suite Bernstein/Robbins Tuesday, May 13, 2008 7:30 PM SYMPHONIC BALANCHINE Symphony in C Bizet/Balanchine Symphony in Three Movements Stravinsky/Balanchine Western Symphony Kay/Balanchine Wednesday, May 14, 2008 7:30 PM RUSSIAN ROOTS Opus 19/The Dreamer Prokofiev/Robbins Andantino Tschaikovsky/Robbins Piano Pieces Tschaikovsky/Robbins Les Noces Stravinsky/Robbins Thursday, May 15, 2008 8:00 PM FRENCH CUSINE Mother Goose Ravel/Robbins Afternoon of a Faun Debussy/Robbins Antique Epigraphs Debussy/Robbins In G Major Ravel/Robbins For this program, Robbins calls upon all the chic and romance of France with the aid of two supreme composers, Ravel and Debussy. Mother Goose resonates for children of all ages with its nostalgic score and fairytale friends. Afternoon of a Faun depicts a chance encounter between two young dancers. Subtle, sensual, and narcissistic, it reveals the very heart of human attraction. Enveloped by Debussy’s prismatic score, Antique Epigraphs’ all-female ensemble moves to the echoes of centuries past. The program concludes with In G Major, a saucy Riviera romp. At the ballet’s heart is one of the most touching and luminous pas de deux in the Robbins repertory. Friday, May 16, 2008 8:00 PM DOUBLE FEATURE The Blue Necklace from Double Feature Berlin/Stroman Makin' Whoopee from Double Feature Donaldson/Stroman Double Feature is a whirligig of a ballet. Broadway’s Susan Stroman, of the smash hits The Producers and Young Frankenstein, has created a masterful tribute to America’s silver screen era. Like its namesake, the ballet features two stories under one bill of fare. The first, “The Blue Necklace,” is a 1920’s Cinderella story complete with an abandoned daughter, matinee idol, and endless line of Louis Brooks look-a-like chorines. “Makin’ Whoopee” follows the story of Jimmie Shannon, who has only hours to find a wife or forfeit his uncle’s fortune. Complete with songs by Irving Berlin and Walter Donaldson, Double Feature is double the fun. Saturday, May 17, 2008 8:00 PM RUSSIAN ROOTS Opus 19/The Dreamer Prokofiev/Robbins Andantino Tschaikovsky/Robbins Piano Pieces Tschaikovsky/Robbins Les Noces Stravinsky/Robbins Saturday, May 17, 2008 2:00 PM DOUBLE FEATURE The Blue Necklace from Double Feature Berlin/Stroman Makin' Whoopee from Double Feature Donaldson/Stroman Sunday, May 18, 2008 3:00 PM DOUBLE FEATURE The Blue Necklace from Double Feature Berlin/Stroman Makin' Whoopee from Double Feature Donaldson/Stroman Tuesday, May 20, 2008 7:30 PM DOUBLE FEATURE The Blue Necklace from Double Feature Berlin/Stroman Makin' Whoopee from Double Feature Donaldson/Stroman Wednesday, May 21, 2008 7:30 PM BAROQUE TO JAZZ: A MUSICAL ODYSSEY I Brandenburg Bach/Robbins In the Night Chopin/Robbins N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz Prince/Robbins Three musical epochs. Three distinct voices. All in one dazzling program. Robbins’ Brandenburg – danced to Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos – is ebullient in spirit and filled with the wonder of boundless freedom and endless possibility. With In the Night, Robbins gives us vastly contrasting sets of lovers under a midnight sky. Ranging from idyllic to headstrong, this work is as passionate as its Chopin score. With 1950s inflections at its core, N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz is a reflection of the post-war era when city streets were bustling with teens moving to cool jazz and angst-ridden beats. Thursday, May 22, 2008 8:00 PM DOUBLE FEATURE The Blue Necklace from Double Feature Berlin/Stroman Makin' Whoopee from Double Feature Donaldson/Stroman Friday, May 23, 2008 8:00 PM WORLD TOUR An American in Paris Gershwin/Wheeldon Valse Triste Sibelius/Martins The Chairman Dances Adams/Martins Bugaku Mayuzumi/Balanchine Russian Seasons Desyatnikov/Ratmansky Saturday, May 24, 2008 2:00 PM FRENCH CUSINE Mother Goose Ravel/Robbins Afternoon of a Faun Debussy/Robbins Antique Epigraphs Debussy/Robbins In G Major Ravel/Robbins Saturday, May 24, 2008 8:00 PM BAROQUE TO JAZZ: A MUSICAL ODYSSEY I Brandenburg Bach/Robbins In the Night Chopin/Robbins N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz Prince/Robbins Sunday, May 25, 2008 3:00 PM JEWELS Emeralds from Jewels Fauré/Balanchine Rubies from Jewels Stravinsky/Balanchine Diamonds from Jewels Tschaikovsky/Balanchine Jewels is a miracle of movement. Inspired by a visit to Van Cleef & Arpels, Balanchine turned a love of gems into a grand pyrotechnical display that distills the brilliant facets of the French, Russian, and American traditions. "Emeralds" moves at a mesmerizing pace, while "Rubies" is lightning fast, racing through Stravinsky’s jazz-inflected capriccio. "Diamonds", with its symphonic Tschaikovsky score, venerates the sumptuous nature of the Russian ballet as experienced by Balanchine in his youth. Tuesday, May 27, 2008 7:30 PM ALL AMERICAN FARE Interplay Gould/Robbins Ives, Songs Ives/Robbins I'm Old Fashioned Gould/Robbins All American Fare reaches deep into America’s soul and spirit as expressed in its music. Robbins’ Interplay is a fun-loving, daredevil firecracker of a ballet, filled with the best of jive and jitterbug. Bathed in autumn light, Ives, Songs gives voice to the musical poetry of Charles Ives, recalling the memories of a lifetime as captured in 18 New England vignettes of a less-hurried time. I’m Old Fashioned is a valentine to America at the height of its love affair with Fred Astaire. If you’ve ever been swept off your feet by a romance that made you feel 40 feet tall, Robbins made this ballet with you in mind.

After years of spectacular Broadway success, Dances at a Gathering marked Robbins’ magnificent return to the ballet stage. It was and remains a landmark for its sustained invention, unstressed virtuosity, and constantly shifting emotions. Again, Robbins turned to Chopin for Other Dances, a pas de deux renowned for its abundant brio. In 1956, The Concert set the standard for just how funny a ballet could be. If you love the theater, you’ll adore The Concert’s cast of feisty theatergoers, officious staff, and prima donnas who gather at an unforgettable piano recital.

These three ballets each recall such iconic moments. For many, the world of mid-century café society is Manhattan. Thou Swell embodies glittering décor, sumptuous fashion, elegant couples, and Richard Rodgers’ glorious music. The world of biblical patriarchs is typified by the story of the Prodigal Son. Balanchine’s dramatic retelling of this parable swells with color, emotion, and powerful characterization. In the mid-19th Century, Vienna was the epicenter of European music. Brahms-Schoenberg Quartet embodies the majesty, impetuous romance, and Gypsy zest of this intoxicating age. Tuesday, June 10, 2008 7:30 PM GENERATION NEXT Circus Polka Stravinsky/Robbins Moves A ballet in silence/Robbins The Cage Stravinsky/Robbins Four Bagatelles Beethoven/Robbins Fanfare Britten/Robbins As the adage goes, “Youth will be served,” and this program celebrates just that. Students from the School of American Ballet perform two of Robbins’ utterly enchanting works: Circus Polka, with the tiniest of dancers, and Fanfare, a rousing, light-hearted spin through the world of orchestral music. Moves forgoes musical accompaniment and enthralls with the unexpected intensity it derives through movement alone. The Cage is one of Robbins’ most famous ballets. Dark and deadly, it plunges into the natural world of selection and survival as a novice must make life and death decisions. Four Bagatelles is a tender pas de deux, being brought back this season after a long absence. Wednesday, June 11, 2008 7:30 PM GENERATION NEXT Circus Polka Stravinsky/Robbins Moves A ballet in silence/Robbins The Cage Stravinsky/Robbins Four Bagatelles Beethoven/Robbins Fanfare Britten/Robbins Thursday, June 12, 2008 8:00 PM HERE AND NOW Rococo Variations Tschaikovsky/Wheeldon River of Light Wuorinen/Martins Oltremare Moretti/Bigonzetti New Ratmansky Ballet Ratmansky Friday, June 13, 2008 8:00 PM THEN AND THERE Thou Swell Rodgers/Martins Prodigal Son Prokofiev/Balanchine Brahms-Schoenberg Quartet Brahms, Schoenberg/Balanchine Saturday, June 14, 2008 2:00 PM BACH TO GLASS: A MUSICAL ODYSSEY II 2 and 3 Part Inventions Bach/Robbins A Suite of Dances Bach/Robbins In Memory of... Berg/Robbins Glass Pieces Glass/Robbins As Balanchine famously said, “The music is always first,” and Robbins puts that principle on vivid display here. Turning to the music of Bach, he set 2 and 3 Part Inventions on young dancers from the School of American Ballet in 1994, creating a work of shining clarity, surprise and optimism. Accompanied by an on-stage cellist, A Suite of Dances is a piece for one male dancer that is a solo tour de force, at once witty and pensive. Deeply-felt and elegiac, In Memory Of… is a study of unfathomable loss from which no life is immune. Glass Pieces is utterly contemporary, pulsating with the throbbing pace of urban life.

The history of art is filled with such pleas. Balanchine made his final masterpiece, Mozartiana, in homage to the composer whose sensibility informed his life - - Peter Ilyich Tschaikovsky. As Mr. B. honored Tschaikovsky, the composer was recalling his own debt to Mozart in this score. Le Tombeau de Couperin is Maurice Ravel’s musical monument to the French Baroque composer, François Couperin. Refined, gallant, and filled with simple grace, it is a fitting memorial. Stravinsky’s Divertimento from “Le Baiser de la Fée” also honors Tschaikovsky, and takes the fleeting and fickle nature of inspiration itself as its source. Art’s unpredictability as expressed in Bellini’s mystery-filled melodies is at the soul of La Sonnambula. In the midst of a sinister masked ball, a poet is transfixed by a gossamer sleepwalker to devastating effect. Once seen, it is unforgettable.

The music of one: clear-eyed, confident and complex, seems to have flowed from the head of a god. The other has its headwaters in the depths of the soul: tumultuous and passionate. A Robbins’ masterpiece, The Goldberg Variations are precision and performance grandly executed on every level. The ballet is a testament to Robbins’ unceasing choreographic invention. Brahms’ Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel brought Twyla Tharp and Jerome Robbins together for the only time. Their collaboration, Brahms/Handel is a vibrant, quicksilver ballet that employs two cadres of dancers pitted against each other in an exuberant ballet of artistic wills. It will make you catch your breath.
