LES NOCES
SPRING PROGRAM
April 29 – May 10, 2009
Les Noces
Choreography by Bronislava Nijinska
Music by Igor Stravinsky
Performed to critical acclaim by The Joffrey in the past, see a new generation of dancers in this riveting ballet! Les Noces, with its vast chorus, explores the timeless rituals
of a peasant wedding. The piece was created by Nijinska, the first female Principal Choreographer of Les Ballets Russes.
Valses Poeticos
Choreography by Helgi Tomasson
Music by Enrique Granados
Originally created for Joffrey Ballet artistic director Ashley C. Wheater, this lyrical ballet transforms love letters into dance with intimate pas de deux and solos reflecting the tenderness
of the couple’s relationship. Joffrey Premiere
Carousel (A Dance)
Choreography by Christopher Wheeldon
Music by Richard Rodgers
The brilliantly talented Christopher Wheeldon’s Carousel (a Dance)is a great addition to the Joffrey Ballet repertoire. The ballet brings us to the fairground
and a young couple in love. It is set to the stunning music of Richard Rodgers, climaxing in a central duet to “If I Loved You”. It is a ballet to be treasured. Joffrey
