Ashton Triple

The Ashton Triple is a landmark evening of three one-act ballets choreographed by Frederick Ashton to scores by Igor Stravinsky. This triple bill showcases Ashton's mastery across contrasting idioms: from the neoclassical elegance of Scènes de ballet to the rhythmic vitality and wit of The Rite of Spring, and the lyrical sophistication of The Firebird. Each work demonstrates Ashton's distinctive ability to translate Stravinsky's complex musical architecture into fluid, expressive movement. The program celebrates the enduring creative partnership between these two titans of twentieth-century art, presenting audiences with a comprehensive survey of Ashton's choreographic language applied to some of the most significant modernist scores ever composed.
