LUMINARIO BALLET 2011<\/h1>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Around this time last year, I was due to see this ballet company that I heard is wonderful. And then I hurt my back and had to stay in the house for a long time. I planned to catch another performance of the Luminario Ballet again this summer, when I was up and around, but it was the one week that I had to be in New York. So, I\u2019m keeping my fingers crossed that the third time, on January 29, will be the charm!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a one-night-only event, or else you know that I\u2019d check it out first to let you know if you should see it. But I\u2019m trusting the opinion of a couple of pals who really know their dance, so I feel safe recommending it. And, since it\u2019s absolutely the most affordable dance program ever, (general admission is only $40, and $20 for students,) I feel it\u2019s worth a look-see. Here are the deets, as they were presented to me by the powers-that-be:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This world premiere is touted to be a \u201cbeautifully stunning, heartbreaking, and captivating version of Shubert’s Winterreise<\/em>.\u201d It will also feature poems by W. Muller, circa 1824, for the \u201cfirst time in the composition’s history,\u201d along with music provided by pianist Francois Chouchan and baritone Christopher Herbert. (Both of whom I missed in what I understand was a fabulous performance on my birthday week-end at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, as part of Le Salon de Musiques.) [Note: I know that last part was not a complete sentence, but it portrayed my drift.]<\/p>\n

And since this is being staged at the intimate First Presbyterian Church in Santa Monica, every seat is supposed to be good. (And, please<\/em>–remember to flatten your hair, not wear a hat or high-standing doo-dad on your head, and especially, NO PERFUME!!! It\u2019s just gross to sit near people who reek, especially in such a small venue.)<\/p>\n

Looking forward to the ballet itself and to seeing you all there!<\/p>\n
