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 New York City Ballet 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 New York City Ballet 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. Saturday, June 21, 2008 2:00 PM DEFINITIVE CHOPIN Dances at a Gathering Chopin/Robbins Other Dances Chopin/Robbins The Concert Chopin/Robbins Saturday, June 21, 2008 8:00 PM MUSICAL MUSES Mozartiana Tschaikovsky/Balanchine Le Tombeau de Couperin Ravel/Balanchine Divertimento from "Baiser de la Fée" Stravinsky/Balanchine La Sonnambula Rieti/Balanchine Sunday, June 22, 2008 3:00 PM ALL GERMAN AND SOME THARP The Goldberg Variations Bach/Robbins Brahms/Handel Handel, Brahms/Robbins, Tharp JS Bach and Johannes Brahms tower over the German musical landscape. 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.
