Featuring a restaging of the neoclassical ballets “Birthday Variations” by Gerald Arpino and “Stars and Stripes” by George Balanchine, along with a collection of studio repertoire performed by the dancers of Classical Movement Collective. “Birthday Variations” was commissioned by Becky D’Angelo as a birthday present to her husband Dino, who owned Chicago’s Civic Opera House, and loved Verdi’s music. “…The result is more than a piece d’occasion. Birthday Variations, set to some of Verdi’s infectious opera-ballet music, is a sparkling showpiece of classical dancing.” —Anna Kisselgoff, New York Times Showcasing a special salute to Veterans and Service Members, the ballet, "Stars and Stripes," is set to Sousa's Buoyant Marches and with dancers dressed in delightful all-American costumes. For all its exuberant patriotic touches, Stars and Stripes contains as much pure dancing as many full-length classical ballets. The work is divided into five “campaigns,” each of which uses different themes from John Philip Sousa’s marches. Stars and Stripes has been performed for many memorable occasions, including Nelson Rockefeller’s inauguration as governor of New York, tributes for Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson, and the opening ceremonies for the New York State Theater (now the David H. Koch Theater) at Lincoln Center. The ballet is dedicated to the memory of Fiorello H. LaGuardia, mayor of New York City from 1934 to 1945 and founder of the City Center of Music and Drama.
