    Three company premieres of ballets set to music with songs! New York City Ballet principal dancer Nilas Martins’ Puccini Songs is a classical ballet for three couples set to eleven operatic songs by Giacomo Puccini performed with live voice and piano accompaniment. Antony Tudor’s Dark Elegies is regarded as one of the greatest ballets of the 20th century. Set to Gustav Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder, this 1937 setting of poems by Rückert is a true masterpiece for the ages. And hailed as one of America’s most inventive choreographers, Twyla Tharp has set Sinatra Songs to recordings by old Blue Eyes himself including High Hopes, Fly Me To The Moon, One More for My Baby (and One More for the Road), and many more Sinatra favorites.
