New York City Ballet on TV

**jegreenwood** · Feb-16-2017, 02:20

There are very few videos of the New York City Ballet and not many TV appearances in recent years. Therefore I was excited to find out that U.S. Public Television would be broadcasting a two part special - New York City Ballet in Paris. Here's a link to the web page.

All four dances are to French music. I've seen Symphony in C several times (including a performance by the Royal Ballet). I've seen La Valse once. The other two I have not seen. I will cwerainly have my DVR set.

Enjoyed both episodes. My only complaint is that I didn't find the Gounod music terribly engaging. But that may be due in part to listening through television speakers.

All in all a fine introduction to Mr. B's oeuvre. And Teresa Reichlen's legs . . .

Edit - Forgot to add the link for on-line viewing:

I don't know if this will work for overseas viewers. If asked for a zip code try mine 10016
