Dumbarton Oaks/Duo Concertant/Monotones II
Dumbarton Oaks - New Work.
Duo Concertant - This lyrical but simply crafted ballet is one of Balanchine's most beautiful duets. The music, for violin and piano, almost surpasses the beauty and authority of the dance - a testimony to the long-standing partnership between composer and choreographer.
Monotones II - Brilliantly displays the complimentary nature of music and movement. This mesmerising piece is fiercely demanding of those who dance the roles - a compelling showcase for the technical excellence of BRB's dancers.
