50th Anniversary

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the New York City Ballet's landmark 1975 Ravel Festival, the company presents a stunning All Ravel program with a collection of works set to the composer's timelessly evocative music! Opening the evening is Jerome Robbins' In G Major, brought to life by Ert's striking Art Deco designs, while Balanchine's Pavane, a delicate solo set to Ravel's Pavane pour une infante dfunte, showcases the quiet grace of a lone female dancer.

The rest of the program features more brilliance from George Balanchine, with his Errante, a ballet that captivated audiences in its 2024, and his Sonatine, a charming duet that highlights the airy joy of two dancers locked in playful movement. Bringing the evening to a dramatic close is La Valse, a mesmerizing work bringing beauty to darkness and tragedy. Don't miss this magnificent tribute to one of the 20th century's most influential composers and his enduring imprint on the artform.
