Two Greats

Los Angeles Ballet bring beauty into the spring with two of ballet's pinnacle pieces, Stravinsky's perennial fantasy favorite Firebird and the George Balanchine original Serenade. With choreography by Yuri Possokhov, Firebird is based on Russian fairytales about a mythical bird that can be both a blessing and a curse to its owner. 

George Balanchine's serenade, meanwhile, set to Tchaikovsky's Serenade for Strings in C, was born from his teaching at the School of American Ballet and is now known is one of the hallmarks pieces of the famed New York City Ballet. With romantic atmosphere and daring adventure, the two pieces will delight with magnificent costumes, sets and of course, incredible choreography!
