From the company:



New  York- Trio Con Brio, set to music by Mikhail Glinka, was choreographed  at Jacob's Pillow in 1952. Considered an experimental project by Tudor,  the outcome was a departure from his usual psychological dances. The  work remained unknown until this past summer when footage was  discovered in the archives at Jacob's Pillow. Diana Byer, NYTB's  Artistic Director has taken the challenge of reconstructing the work  from the 16 mm film and music score. NYTB's principal dancer, Elena  Zahlmann will dance the leading female role both evenings. The music  will be performed live by NYTB music director Ferdy Tumakaka.

The  second performance in New York Theatre Ballet's Dance On A Shoestring  series will take place at 7 pm on Friday and Saturday, November 14  & 15 at The Dance Gallery, 30 East 31st Street, 5th Floor, NYC.  Hailed as a "discreet little pearl in the oyster of New York dance", by  Jennifer Dunning of The New York Times, this performance marks the  opening of NYTB's 30th Anniversary season featuring Antony Tudor's lost  ballet Trio Con Brio.

Join New York Theatre Ballet and Ballet  School NY for an evening of dance and music That includes many of the  works seen on their most recent mid west tour. The intimate Dance  Gallery offers a unique performance experience where the audience not  only sees the dance, but can observe behind-the-scenes elements of an  informal theatrical experience. Children from Ballet School NY will  also be featured on the program.
