Ballet and music in the purest form ❤

[@fowlermartin7592]

Thanks for reviving that work by MacMillian -- from back in the day when the aesthetics of grace, line and geometry-in-motion were more valued than often seems to be the case today. A different "face" of ballet, one might say. In addition, the music was carefully interpreted. All in all, a delight.

Beautiful

Sublime. Divine. Pure. Excellent. Just painted the music with ballet. Ahhh! Brava!

[@michaelb2685]

This is a beautiful piece of art. I love it all all, the dancers, music, choreography, sets, lighting and costumes too. They all work so well together.

A perfectly nuanced tribute to the Canadian Ballerina that inspired the choreography.

Genius choreography, exquisite execution. Art at its best.

So beautiful and graceful!!

[@mechekroop]

Exqisite. I think I held my breath for 8 minutes. I didn't even want to blink lest I miss something. I'm sick and tired of of the "gym class herky-jerky"choreography one sees so much of today.

[@monongahelacats]

Agreed! This ballet is so beautiful.
