“Review: Balanchine, Peck, Abraham and Robbins: New York City Ballet Enters a New Era of Hope and Revived Energy”
by Maria Di Mento
“There were numerous standouts among the cast on opening night, chief among them Sara Mearns and Jared Angle in the ballet’s second movement, an adagio of impossible beauty. Mearns brought to bear the full force of her trademark mystery and elegance on this section and with Angle’s confident partnering she danced with an abandon that was at once steely and delicate. There was an audible sigh of awe among the audience at that movement’s end.”
