Get to know a little more about our founder George Balanchine every Friday with Balanchine Basics. This week, we focus on the enormous breadth of ballets that he created in his lifetime: some 465 works, ranging from the plotless black & white ballet Agon to the full-length story ballet, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. “The word choreographer is too fancy for what I do,” he once said. “Dance supplier is better. Dance does not exist unless someone provides it.” | New York City Ballet
