Intérprete: Russell Janzen

An auditorium packed with former company members usher in New York City Ballet's 75th anniversary with George Balanchine's ornamental triptych. 

Over twenty-two vignettes, some long, others short, a cast of thirty pedestrianizes ballet. The work suggests that who you are matters more than what you do. 

I must admit I like NYCB’s recent trend away from the themed programming. The combinations can seem strange, but the performances have more variety.
