EVENT 2:
THE JOFFREY BALLET OF CHICAGO REPERTORY
AT THE AUDITORIUM THEATRE
OCTOBER 14-18, 1998
ALL ARPINO!
VIVA VIVALDI
( Gerald Arpino/Antonio Vivaldi)
A glittering display of classical style that flirts with the baroque set to staccato rhythms for classical guitar.
SEA SHADOW (Revival)
( Gerald Arpino/Maurice Ravel)
A tender, “poetic” pas de deux inspired by the romantic Ondine fable, set to the 2nd movement of Ravel’s concerto in G Major.
CONFETTI (Revival)
(Gerald Arpino/Gioacchino Rossini)
A rousing, bravura classical pas de six in the spirit of the Tarantella is fluttery and brightly colored as it sweeps across the stage at dazzling speed.
LIGHT RAIN
(Gerald Arpino/ Douglas Adams & Russ Gauthier)
A sensual, powerful full-company signature piece with languorously passionate pas de deux set to an original score of “East-West fusion.”
