American masterworks: Dances at a Gathering & Esplanade

Ivy Lin, 1st May

Different music, different moods, different choreographers, but both quintessentially American. We compare and contrast two dance works which bring out the American dream of community, happiness and freedom.

NYCB's eclectic program worth the three hours

Ivy Lin, 12th May

The ending of Stars and Stripesis a sure-fire applause machine. The lowering of the flag while all the regiments march and salute onstage is so corny that only Balanchine could have choreographed it with a straight face. And yet it worked in 1958 and it works in 2019.
