San Francisco Ballet - British Icons

macmillan and ashton celebrated

San Francisco Ballet celebrate the work of two of Britain's greatest choreographers, Sir Kenneth Macmillan and Sir Frederick Ashton, in British Icons. In "Song of the Earth", MacMillan skillfully constructs a tale of love, heartache, and poignant endings through eloquent choreography harmoniously set to Mahler. Meanwhile, Ashton's "Marguerite and Armand" stands out as an embodiment of a passionate love affair, pulling the audience deep into the currents of their ill-fated romance, to the music of Liszt.

With sumptuous sets and costumes, San Francisco Ballet bring fresh eloquence to these two classic works from two legendary British icons.
