Set to the ultra-romantic piano music of Chopin, Dances at a Gathering is a celebration of dance … pure and simple … in all of its athleticism, grace and sheer joy. Simply sit back, relax and enjoy the pure beauty in choreographer Jerome Robbins’ tribute to dancing and to dancers. Then shift gears to the clever, whirling, high-octane Brahms/Handel, a spirited collaboration between two choreographic giants — Robbins and Twyla Tharp — in a dance that’s “unlike anything in the ballet repertory.” – The New York Times
