George Balanchine stands as one of the towering figures in 20th century ballet. His Symphony in C was the first major work to showcase his trademark lean, high energy classicism. Set to Georges Bizet’s exuberant score, the ballet has four movements with each featuring a different ballerina, danseur and corps de ballet. Also on the program is Maurice Ravel’s famous "Bolero" in a dance setting by Cincinnati Ballet’s Artistic Director and CEO, Victoria Morgan. A third ballet performed by the talented dancers of BalletMet rounds out this adventurous program.
