Experience the sleek grace and physicality of neoclassical ballet with the State Ballet of Georgia in a program of works by George Balanchine and Ukrainian choreographer Yuri Possokhov. Led by the renowned Nina Ananiashvili, a native of Georgia and a former Bolshoi prima ballerina, Ananiashvili has revitalized the State Ballet of Georgia, attracting major choreographers from all over the world. Their debut program at the Center for the Arts features two works by famed 20th-century Georgian American choreographer George Balanchine including Serenade, set to music by Tchaikovsky, and Concerto Barocco, set to J.S. Bach’s Concerto in D minor for two violins. The impeccably precise dancers of this company also bring Georgian folk melodies to life in Sagalobeli by Ukrainian choreographer Yuri Possokhov. Referencing the company’s 2011 tour, The Washington Post said, “Ananiashvili and her company are practicing diplomacy through dance—a great and hopeful gift.”
The Center for the Arts at George Mason University announced today its 2022/2023 season of mainstage performances, featuring a diverse lineup of artists and ensembles across many genres, as part of Great Performances at Mason and the Family Series.
