SAINT LOUIS BALLET presents ST. LOUIS BLUES/CALL IT LOVE

This powerful collection of ballets explores the intersection of classical technique, modern rhythm and emotional depth. From Gen Horiuchi’s “St. Louis Blues,” a vibrant tribute to the roots of American jazz featuring live music and vocals, to the kinetic energy of Peter Martins’ “Hallelujah Junction” and the bold, theatrical flair of “The Chairman Dances” (both set to the driving scores of John Adams) –each work pulses with musical innovation. Adding to the program’s richness, Christopher Wheeldon’s hauntingly beautiful “Liturgy” (matinee only) offers a meditative pas de deux that is both intimate and transcendent.
