New York City Ballet: Jewels
Thursday, September 24
David H. Koch Theater
20 Lincoln Center Plaza, New York, NY
$45–$250
George Balanchine’s Jewels unfolds in three contrasting acts, each inspired by a different gemstone. Emeralds glides to Fauré’s elegant French music; Rubies snaps with Stravinsky’s jazzy pulse; Diamonds pairs Tchaikovsky with grand, imperial lines. With glittering Karinska costumes and distinctive styles ranging from romantic to briskly modern, this landmark plotless ballet turns color, music and movement into a dazzling triptych at the David H. Koch Theater.
