THE JOFFREY REPERTORY AT THE
AUDITORIUM THEATRE
MARCH 20, 1999
SPECIAL FOUNDER’S EVENING
KETTENTANZ
(Gerald Arpino/Johann Strauss Sr. & Johann Mayer)
A charming to the eye, and technically demanding classical masterwork, filled with Viennesse dances, was inspired by The Joffrey’s acclaimed visit to Vienna in 1969.
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.
REMEMBRANCES (Pas De Deux) (Revival)
(Robert Joffrey/Richard Wagner)
A rapturous love duet excerpted from Robert Joffrey’s ballet REMEMBRANCES, created in 1973 to Richard Wagner’s “Traume.”
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.”
