The Royal Ballet: Balanchine's JEWELS

In Australian cinemas May 19-24, 2017 http://www.palaceoperaandballet.com.a... George Balanchine’s evocation of the sparkle of gemstones is a brilliant ballet classic. The French Romantic music of Fauré provides the impetus for the subtlety and lyricism of Emeralds, while the fire of Rubies comes from Stravinsky and the jazz-age energy of New York. Grandeur and elegance complete the ballet with the splendour of Imperial Russia and the peerless music of Tchaikovsky in Diamonds. Captured live from Covent Garden, London (11/04/17)
