Reflections on Time

The National Ballet of Canada presents an extraordinary evening of dance, with three stunning works exploring the gamut of transformation and human connection. The Four Seasons, choreographed by David Dawson, reimagines Vivaldi's iconic concertos through Max Richter's evocative re-score, capturing the shifting landscapes of life. In four distinct sections, this contemporary ballet merges classical precision with resonant modernity.

The evening continues with Marco Goecke's Morpheus' Dream, a captivating duet set to a striking blend of Keith Jarrett's piano music and Lady Gaga's vocals, unveiling the tensions of a dreamlike relationship. Antony Tudor's lyrical masterpiece, The Leaves Are Fading, completes the program with its poignant meditation on memory and the passage of time, where the natural cycle of seasons mirrors the quiet poetry of life's fleeting moments.
