    Square Dance (Balanchine/Vivaldi and Corelli) Balanchine's breezy and exuberant Square Dance reveals a surprising number of connections between American barn dancing and the classical vocabulary of academic ballet.

    Afternoon of a Faun (Robbins/Debussy) Jerome Robbins' riveting duet between a young man in a dance studio absorbed by his reflection in a mirror and a young woman who enters the studio and interrupts his reverie. It was observing a young student at the School of American Ballet that inspired Jerome Robbins to create this masterpiece. That student was Edward Villella.

    Liturgy (Wheeldon/Part) An intensely sensual and haunting pas de deux by one of the world's leading choreographers, Liturgy involves two dancers intertwining to the contemporary sounds of composer Arvo Part.

    In the Upper Room (Tharp/Glass) This turbulent, explosive, almost hypnotic experience is Twyla Tharp's signature dance and a contemporary masterwork. An endurance test filled with power, energy, and speed, it leaves viewers, as well as the dancers, breathless
