This past Tuesday kicked off the New York City Ballet’s (NYCB’s) 2019 summer residency at Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC). In the season opener, Tchaikovsky and Balanchine, the NYCB danced George Balanchine’s “Serenade” and “Mozartiana,” as well as Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No.2.

On Wednesday, the second of the NYCB’s five-day residency, the theme was 21st Century Choreographers, and included the dances “Varied Trio (in four),” “Principia” and “The Runaway.”
