The National Ballet of Canada hosted the opening night of Innovation. Innovation consist of four ballets, all unique. The First was Water Shed, Choreographed by Jose Navas. The Second was Being and Nothingness (Part 1) Choreographed by Guillaume Cote. The Third Part of the Programed was titled Unearth Choreographed by Robert Binet. Certainly the first three were experimental and of interest to those looking outside the traditional ballets. The Final Ballet Black Nights Bright Day Choreographed by James Kudelka was by far the best of the evening in my opinion, there was a long standing ovation and the company deserved all the applause for their performance.
On a particular note the Soprano Dame Emma Kirkby and the Countertenor Daniel Taylor gave an excellent performance, something I have not witnessed in all the years I have been attending the ballet. The National Ballet is using the world renowned Four Seasons Center designed by architect Jack Diamond.
Should you have an opportunity to catch this performance I would suggest that you do so before the program finishes for the season. The support of the Arts is important for any World Class City, these Arts Organizations rely on our Support. Please Patronize and give generously.
