The Friends of The Australian Ballet are thrilled to be partnering with Palace Opera & Ballet to bring Friends Members premiere access and discounts to the world’s best Ballet companies!

The French Romantic music of Fauré provides the impetus for the subtlety and lyricism of Emeralds, while the fire of Rubies comes from Stravinsky and the jazz-age energy of New York. Grandeur and elegance complete the ballet with the splendor of Imperial Russia and the peerless music of Tchaikovsky in Diamonds.

Jewels is a masterclass in the many luminous facets of classical ballet and indeed of The Royal Ballet itself: the virtuoso choreography of Balanchine, the intensity of the soloists and the precision of the entire Company.

Captured live from Covent Garden, London 11 April 2017.
