About

The New York City Ballet's (NYCB) roster of over 90 dancers, apprentices, and more than 60 full-time musicians gave over 160 performances at the David H. Koch Theater, showcasing 65 unique ballets. This included 47 performances of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker and three student matinees. The 65 ballets performed included six world premieres. Audiences in New York City numbered 315,000, and the company gave another 26 performances on tour. The fall season featured a weeklong run of George Balanchine's Jewels, widely celebrated and considered the first full-length abstract ballet, a range of repertory by George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins, and five performances of Peter Martins staging of August Bournonville's La Sylphide. The season also included a program featuring 21st-century ballets by Justin Peck, Christopher Wheeldon, Peter Martins, and Alexei Ratmansky, and an all-Robbins program, continuing the company's centennial tribute to its co-founding choreographer which began in spring 2018. A highlight of the season was NYCB's seventh annual Fall Fashion Gala on September 27, for which choreographers Kyle Abraham, Matthew Neenan, and Gianna Reisen collaborated with fashion designers in the creation of new ballets. The winter season featured Peter Martins full-length production of The Sleeping Beauty, All-Balanchine programs, and a world premiere by Justin Peck at the company's annual New Combinations Evening on January 31, which was his fourth collaboration with composer Sufjan Stevens. Other highlights of the winter season included George Balanchine's Prodigal Son, Jerome Robbins NY Export: Opus Jazz, Christopher Wheeldon's After the Rain Pas de Deux, Justin Peck's The Times Are Racing, and the return of the NYCB Art Series, which is designed to engage younger audiences by pairing a contemporary visual art installation in the theater with three access evenings for which all seats for the performance were $35. In keeping with the annual tradition, the company gave six weeks of performances of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker from late November through the end of December. The spring 2019 season opened with a week of contemporary repertory including such works as Justin Peck's Rodeo: Four Dance Episodes, Alexei Ratmansky's Pictures at an Exhibition, and Peter Martins Hallelujah Junction. Highlights also included the annual Spring Gala performance on Thursday, May 2 which featured two world premieres by Justin Peck and by Pam Tanowitz, who created her first-ever commission for NYCB, in addition to Tschaikovsky Suite No. 3. The spring season featured 14 works by George Balanchine and two special 50th anniversary performances of Jerome Robbins Dances at a Gathering on May 21 and 22. The season closed with a week of performances of George Balanchine full-length production of A Midsummer Nights Dream.
