2010.4.23. George Balanchine
Pacific Northwest Ballet presents 3 of Balanchine's ballets: Serenade (1934, music by Tchaikovsky), Square Dance (1957, music by Vivaldi & Corelli), The Four Temperaments (1946, music by Paul Hindemith). The first one is very pretty. Fun compositions, probably better viewed from above. The last one has some interesting yet awkward movements. No stage set, simple costume. The dancer are not as in unison as they should be.
