Diamonds
Choreography
George BalanchineMusic
Peter Ilyich TchaikovskyThe grand finale of Jewels, Diamonds is a majestic tribute to the grandeur of Imperial Russian ballet. Set to Tchaikovsky’s noble and expansive Symphony No. 3, the work channels the opulence and formal elegance of Balanchine’s own roots at the Mariinsky Theatre. Dancers shimmer in classic tutus, moving with crystalline precision and sweeping grace. In Diamonds, Balanchine offers a glittering homage to tradition—regal, radiant, and timeless.
