Robbins, Millepied, Balanchine: Paris Opera Ballet
About the Event
Director of Dance Benjamin Millepied pays hommage to by George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins, two great choreographers who took the American school of dance — and the genre in general — to rarely attained heights. Millepied’s new work, a collaboration with composer Nico Muhly, is the centerpiece of this performance at the Paris Opera.
