No choreographer is more associated with Chopin than Jerome Robbins, who set several major works to his music. The centerpiece of this program is Dances at a Gathering, accompanied by 18 of Chopin's mazurkas, waltzes, and études. The piece premiered in 1969 and became an instant classic, hailed for its invention, virtuosity, and constantly shifting emotions.
