In spring of 2025, the National Ballet of Japan will present a triple bill of 20th-century masterpieces for audiences to enjoy. We will be performing two company premieres, Lander's Etudes, with spectacular technique and Balanchine-evoking geometric beauty, and Forsythe's popular work, The Vertiginous Thrill of Exactitude, with distinctively sharp movements, as well as the first performance since 2013 of Ballets Russes's famous work The Firebird. This is a programme of carefully selected short ballets, each showcasing remarkable music, set design and choreography. This triple bill promises audiences delightfully varied fun and excitement with a sense of satisfaction unlike a full-length ballet.
