ALL BALANCHINE 2023

Choreography: George Balanchine with The Phoenix Symphony at Symphony Hall

April 28, 2023

George Balanchine, known as the Father of American Ballet, broke grounds when he put his twist on traditional ballet standards and techniques. Ballet Arizona’s Artistic Director, Ib Andersen, was mentored by the legendary choreographer during his tenure as a dancer at New York City Ballet.  Andersen will present three of Balanchine’s works during All Balanchine, including Emeralds, The Four Temperaments and one never before performed in Arizona, Raymonda Variations.

Music by Alexander Glazunov

Set to a melodic and enchanting musical score, Raymonda Variations is a bustle of precise ballet technique that materializes into a spectacle of dance with a succession of remarkable solos at its center.

The Arizona premiere of Raymonda Variations is sponsored in part by Dr. Eleanore Jane Rosenthal.
