On May 11 Members and Friends of the Finnish & American Women's Network got together to enjoy ballet and learn more about Balanchine “Balanchine and the lost muse”
We enjoyed the below ballets and then gathered at Restaurant Fiorello together with author and journalist Elizabeth Kendall who talked about her new book “Balanchine and the lost muse” and about the Balanchine ballet performance we had experienced. The all-Balanchine program featured four classical ballets, each with its own allure:
Raymonda Variations (music Glazounov) ,
The Steadfast Tin Soldier (music Bizet),
Le Tombeau de Couperin (music Ravel),
Symphony in C (music Bizet)
 at Lincoln Center
