NYCB All Balanchine IV October 13 2023
So I know I just got done being all dark about Balanchine/the ballet in general, but this was great!
Concerto Barocco was wonderful, and in particular Mira Nadon was breathtakingly graceful, her small gestures and extensions...just gorgeous. Loved the music as well -- Bach concert for 2 violins -- and I thought the dancers expressed it beautifully.
Prodigal Son -- one of the oddest things I've seen at the ballet, but our queen Sarah Mearns rarely disappoints (though I must say I found myself a little concerned she would fall off/over during some of the truly odd lifts in this ballet). The corps, a hulking gang of bald-headed brutes in white make up gave a real Mad Max: Fury Road vibe, down to their head gestures. Weird, acrobatic, and fun, well matched to the Prokofiev score. A little too odd to express pathos, if that was the intent at any point.
Symphony in C -- music by Bizet. This was the audience's favorite, though for me maybe the least memorable. This was a big, beautiful ballet with a big cast, pirouette combinations and crowd favorite Tiler Peck receiving an ovation every time she entered the stage. You can definitely tell why she's a star -- her power and assurance never leave you in doubt about her utter control, and it's hard to look away from her when she's on stage.

The Timeless Dance of 'Mozartiana': A Tribute to Balanchine's Vision
The Timeless Dance of “Mozartiana” There exists a moment for exuberant dancing, and another for heartfelt applause.

George Balanchine, the visionary choreographer behind the New York City Ballet, perceived the theater as a sacred space. He once remarked, “You don’t…

New York City Ballet | New Works Festival: pixelation in a wave (Within Wires)
Sidra Bell's first work created for NYCB, pixelation in a wave (Within Wires), opens our digital New Works Festival. Directed by Ezra Hurwitz, the film features dancers Ghaleb Kayali, Emily Kikta, Mira Nadon, and Peter Walker, dancing to a score composed by the choreographer's father, Dennis Bell.
The film is immediately followed by a panel discussion on the creation of this work with Sidra Bell and Mira Nadon, moderated by NYCB's Associate Artistic Director Wendy Whelan.
