CCM Dance and the CCM Philharmonia presents Serenade, the first ballet George Balanchine crafted in America, restaged by guest artist Joysanne Sidimus. With music by Pyotr Illyich Tchaikovsky, it is considered to be a defining moment in the creation of the American ballet aesthetic.

In addition, guest choreographer Matthew Farmer presents Stretto, set to the six movements of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Suites for Solo Cello.

The second half of this concert celebrates Igor Stravinsky and his ongoing and inspiring influence on dance with new original choreography to The Rite of Spring and Suite No. 2 by CCM dance faculty Jiang Qi and Shauna Steele.

The performance of Serenade, a Balanchine® Ballet, is presented by arrangements with The George Balanchine Trust and has been produced in accordance with the Balanchine Style® and Balanchine Technique® Service standards established and provided by the Trust.
