This unique performance brings together four pieces that reflect the diversity and elegance of 20th and 21st century ballet, combining pas a deux with group choreographies.

Haieff Divertimento, by George Balanchine, is a work of precision and grace set to music that is as lively as it is nostalgic. Concerto Pas de Deux, by Kenneth MacMillan, stands out for its technical difficulty and sensitivity, inspired by barre exercises and the music of Shostakovich. Quiet City, a little-known piece by Robbins, reveals itself as a poetic and poignant ballet for three dancers, conceived as an elegy to a lost companion. Pictures at an Exhibition, by Alexei Ratmansky, is a creation for ten dancers inspired by Kandinsky's watercolors and Mussorgsky's music, which oscillates between humor, intensity and visual poetry.

Don’t miss this special night of classical dance.
