In 1947, George Balanchine paid tribute to the company and to the French tradition with his first production for the Paris Opera Ballet, Le Palais de Cristal, in which he choreographed an early work by Georges Bizet, the Symphony in C. Characterised by its architectural design and sense of dialogue with the music, this ballet is a model of academic virtuosity, to which Christian Lacroix, an artisan of light and colour, has brought new shape. Accompanying the dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet for the first time, Philippe Jordan, Musical Director of the Opéra national de Paris, conducts this masterpiece of French music. | Choreography: George Balanchine | Music: Georges Bizet | Costumes: Christian Lacroix
