Following a breathtaking collaboration in 2024, Philadelphia’s premier contemporary ballet, BalletX, returns to PCMS alongside the “audacious… liberating… illuminating” ensemble132 (Blogcritics) for an imaginative program. The first half features miniatures by Wiancko and Bartók culminating in the turbulent and emotionally charged Mozart Piano Quartet in G Minor. These works explore themes and styles that set the stage for the second half: Amy Hall Garner’s reimagining of Petrushka, a magical ballet that delves into innocence, coming of age, folk traditions, and hot-blooded passion.
Wiancko: A sanguine clockwork
Bartók: Duos for Two Violins (Sel.)
Mozart: Piano Quartet in G Minor, K. 478
Stravinsky: Petrushka World Premiere/PCMS & BalletX Commission
Artistic collaborations with PCMS are supported in part by Vincent Tseng & Geoffrey Mainland, Pauline Candaux & Sol Katz, and Peggy Wachs.
Shows are sold out for January 8-9! To join the waitlist, contact the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society at [email protected] or 215-569-8080.
