A little reset for your nervous system. 45 uninterrupted seconds of Allegro Brillante—because sometimes, you just need to let the dancing speak for itself.

Speed, precision, musicality. It's Balanchine at his most brilliant.

See Allegro Brillante as part of American Rhythms, opening NEXT WEEK. ✨

Come a little closer.

A new film from Miami City Ballet, directed by Ezra Hurwitz, offers an intimate look at Jerome Robbins’ N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz: the movement, the attitude, the sensuality, and now, a new chapter in its visual language.

Nearly seven decades after the work’s 1958 premiere, Zac Posen, through GapStudio, was invited by The Robbins Rights Trust and Miami City Ballet to be the first authorized redesign of the ballet’s original costumes for the stage.

Watch the film, then see the company premiere live in American Rhythms, Oct 16–25 in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale.

✨ Meet Allegro Brillante.

Fast, fearless, and full of musicality, George Balanchine’s Allegro Brillante is classical ballet at full speed.

Created in 1956 and set to Tchaikovsky’s soaring Piano Concerto No. 3, the ballet brings together just 10 dancers — one principal couple and an ensemble — for a whirlwind of sweeping movement, intricate footwork, and razor-sharp timing. 🎹🩰

There’s no storyline to follow. Instead, watch the music come to life through the dancers: the piano races forward, the choreography responds, and every turn, jump, and change of direction becomes part of the score.

What to watch for:
The speed. The precision. The way the dancers move together one moment and burst across the stage the next.

Experience the brilliance of Allegro Brillante in American Rhythms.

A different kind of day, in a different kind of studio. 🎬

Campaign shoots give us a chance to step outside the rhythm of rehearsals and see the dancers—and the work—in a completely different way. New lights, new angles, a little movie magic, and plenty happening just outside the frame.

A few behind-the-scenes moments from our American Rhythms shoot with director Ezra Hurwitz. ✨
