Description

This program bridges the history of modern movement through three landmark works. The selection highlights contrasting musical and visual sensibilities, pairing the classical structure of Balanchine's Symphonie Concertante with the philosophical inquiry of Ratmansky's Serenade after Plato's Symposium. The evening concludes with the company premiere of Wayne McGregor's Chroma, a production that merges Joby Talbot's score with tracks by The White Stripes and minimalist scenic designs by John Pawson.
