Ruth Leon recommendsBallet Coast to Coast – Jacob’s Pillow
These are 20 short ballets from the archive of the beautiful Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts. The first three entries are from a program with the same title as this playlist, and all share the distinction of representing U.S. ballet companies from outside New York City.
What the hell is this? I tuned in to Monotones, on of my favourite ballets, and instead of the wonderful Satie music that inspired Ashton’s choreography head some upbeat dreck. I was planning to watch Les Biches and Rubies but dread to think what I will hear.
