Experience a milestone in Aspen Santa Fe Ballet History: an entire evening performed to live piano brought to life by the world-renowned Joyce Yang, a Van Cliburn International Piano Competition silver medalist and Avery Fisher Career Giant recipient. At the center of this program is a world premiere by noted Finnish choreographer Jorma Elo, who collaborated with Yang on a new ballet set to Robert Schumann's Carnaval. Also on the program are Jiří Kylián's seminal Return to a Strange Land with the music of Leoš Janáček, and Nicolo Fonte's Where We Left Off with music by Philip Glass.
"[Yang's] attention to detail and clarity is as impressive as her agility, balance, and velocity."
