SFB repertoire is becoming less classical and less American. The entire 2024/25 season is very Eurocentric. Mostly British ballets with some Dutch/Belgian ones thrown in for the semblance of a balanced programming . No Balanchine, Robbins, Ratmansky, Morris, Forsythe or Peck. Nothing by the choreographer-in-residence Yuri Possokhov. Not a single tutu ballet. SFB is the only American ballet company that hasn’t programmed any Balanchine ballet for its upcoming season. How sad.
@@neyfonsecajunior Programming Wheeldon, McGregor, Scarlett and Van Manen is hardly mold breaking. Wake me up when Tamara programs Gerald Arpino, Ulysses Dove, Agnes de Mille, Maurice Bejart or Roland Petit. Or something created outside of the 100 miles radius from London. It remains to be seen if SF has enough anglophiles to put bums on 3200 seats of the Opera House. If the last season is any indication there’ll be even more discounted and rush tickets.
@@Superpeacenik Other than "Manon", I'd love to see all the other programs. Also, I think the powers that be at SFB wouldn't have hired her if they were looking for the same kind of programming which is seen in all the Balanchine focussed companies throughout the US. This is only her second season, so give her a chance.
I was a subscriber for 18 years and I stopped … I live 2 blocks away from War Memorial House and I won’t be coming back because I don’t think the SFB management team respect dancers and their audience. Failure to give a proper farewell performance to their own Prima after she had dedicated her life work to this company( shameful!) and almost lost its 2024 Nutcracker Season … now this program is nothing exciting.. why created a modern Raymonda , it’s a waste of resource . Instead , may I suggest La Bayadère ? One of the reasons I stop subscribing because SFB recycles too many old pieces , every new season, 70% of they show is what I saw the previous seasons…

Yay!!! 🥰🧟♀️ I pray I may see every ballet this season. 🙏🏽 I pray for all the Artists for a healthy wealthy season. 🤍☀️
Love Tamara!
I’m surprised to see no new works slated for the 24/25 season.
Wait 0:13 this is Dores Andre. How??? She's left SFB 2 years ago! How???..
I love you Dores.
Hi Sasha! 🖖
Dores is back!
Will SAN FRANCISCO BALLET provide pay per view streaming?

I agree,they're failing the audience. Plus the way they treated Yuanyuan Tan!! No traditional farewell,after 30 years!!

So the original Raymonda story was too controversial. Let’s rework it into a glorified tale of British colonial forces 🙄
Boring program, very euro cantered, boring
YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE THE TRADITIONAL SEND OFF FOR YUANYUAN TAN!!! SHAME ON YOU SFB!
Be careful. The admin of this channel blocks/hides critical comments.
No thanks,id rather watch Bolshoi on youtube!
Especially when there is a complete performance of their exquisite Raymonda ❤❤❤
