Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | BalletX

Ballet Nights returns to Cadogan Hall in its latest incarnation with plenty of excitement and surprises.

BalletX, a contemporary ballet company that prides itself on its diversity and its commitment to commissioning new work, brings an ambitious and mostly successful mixed bill to the Joyce Theater.

The gala audience rejoices in Lang Lang's virtuosic performance of Saint-Saëns’ Second Piano Concerto, while Yannick Nézet-Séguin offers a revelatory reading of Dvořák’s Eighth Symphony.

It’s not about being on the biggest stage that matters, but what you do on any stage at all – dance like there is no-one watching. But, happily in this case, we are.

BalletX's exploration of the cycle of life in Beautiful Decay is a clever and truly profound choice (choreography: Nicole Fonte)
