Event Details:

Les Grands Ballets Canadiens returns to Northrop for the first time since 2006, dancing two monumental masterpieces. The iconic four-note opening of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony--said to represent "Fate knocking on Man's door"--inspired American choreographer Garrett Smith's Complete. The late Uwe Scholz's choreography for Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 is considered his masterwork--displaying inventiveness and exceptional musicality. As the music races along at an irrepressible pace, these gorgeous artists convey the sheer joy of dancing to one of the most perfect symphonies ever written.
