A celebration of the indomitable American spirit in its many glorious variations inspires Ballet Met and the Cincinnati Ballet together in Stars and Stripes, a splashy, patriotic favorite by George Balanchine that fills the stage and pairs rapid-fire choreography with the rousing marches of John Philip Sousa. BalletMet also calls forth the intense urban energy of Stanton Welch's Play, which was a hit during the company's Manhattan debut and is set to the unique driving beats of Moby. And Cincinnati Ballet performs Val Caniparoli's Lambarena, in which West African rhythms blend with music by Bach for a wholly original feel.
