Intérprete: FLUX Quartet

Kamala Sankaram's Custom of the Coast follows the twin narratives of Anne Bonny and Savita Halapannavar, real women separated by two centuries. 

Modern dance choreographer Pam Tanowitz' first commission for New York City Ballet proved unruly yet fascinating, sandwiched between George Balanchine's enduring Valse-Fantaisie and Western Symphony.

An imperfect performance, but after Tanowitz's muddled Bartók, Balanchine's Tchaikovsky Suite no. 3 was like balm.
