A trio of works that embody the emotional range and inventiveness of Frederic Chopin celebrate the famed composer's 200th birthday:
The Crossed Line
Choreography/Music: Neenan/Chopin
The Crossed Line explores the boundaries and shifting nature of relationships to Chopin piano concertos transcribed for piano and violin/cello. The concept grew into an exciting commission for Pennsylvania Ballet in April 2004, and was critically acclaimed for "Neenan's crisp choreography, creativity, and innovativeness are refreshingly unpredictable."
Running Time: 32 minutes
In the Night
Choreography/Music: Robbins/Chopin
In the Night uses four Chopin nocturnes as inspiration for three intimate pas de deux that articulate graduated stages of love and romance. Each episode is a tableau of romance - tender young love, mature and balanced love, and explosive passion.
Running Time: 21 minutes
The Concert
Choreography/Music: Robbins/Chopin
The Concert, Robbins's comedic masterpiece set during a piano recital, envelopes audiences with its sidesplitting humor, witty timing, and satirical choreography in its spirited salute to Chopin. The onstage accompanist engages in the antics, which send everyone home laughing.
Running Time: 29 minutes
