Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Lar Lubovitch

Divertimento from Le Baiser de la fée is revived infrequently. It is an odd ballet, as if Balanchine’s couldn’t quite resolve his troubles choreographing to this piece. 

New York City Center’s annual Fall for Dance festival heads online in a pair of programs, one much stronger than the other. 

At its best, Lubovitch's work elevates the spirit and serves as a reminder that there’s beauty in the world.

American Ballet Theatre revives Lar Lubovitch's 1997 Othello with Marcelo Gomes, Julie Kent, James Whiteside, and Stella Abrera in the lead roles. Unfortunately, the formidable dancing and acting could not survive the calamitous score. 

In the Joyce Theater’s Wednesday night program for the 45th anniversary of Lar Lubovitch’s company, Mr Lubovitch presented three duets – bits of fluff, really – and one enigmatic piece for nine men that has left me bewildered and yet decidedly in favor of it.
