Jacob’s Pillow
For MOMIX’S performance at Jacob’s Pillow, Moses Pendelton assembled a “greatest hits” selection of sixteen vignettes from the troupe’s oeuvre.
This first Jacob’s Pillow visit by Dutch National Ballet offered a deep immersion in classical ballet past and present. On every level it belongs to the top tier of dance in the Berkshires.
Did Jacob’s Pillow want to remind us, now more than ever, of a famous phrase from a 1848 Shaker song: “Tis the gift to be simple, tis the gift to be free.”
Kudos to Jacob’s Pillow for this stellar beginning to a digital season of dance.
Nicholas Van Young supplied an astounding display of virtuosity that seemed to amaze even the dancer himself.
