Tharp's first work for New York City Ballet came in 1984 when she collaborated with Jerome Robbins in Brahms/Handel. It also incorporates vernacular movement (including a brief and elegant breakdance) and elements of Tharp's signature slinky, slouchy, syncopated style. After a bright, virtual eruption of high spirits in the third section, the ballet concludes with a playful and rousing finale.Ī neoclassical ballet, The Beethoven Seventh is filled with bravura solos, pas de deux and ensemble work, intricate entrances and exits, and unusual partnering. The ballet opens with a lighthearted, yet noble first movement, followed by a slow and sensuous pas de deux filled with yearning and passion. It is set to music that is often referred to as Beethoven's "dance symphony" (after Richard Wagner's famous statement, "this symphony is the very apotheosis of dance"). In four movements: vivace, allegretto, presto meno assai, and allegro con brio. Recorded April 6, 15 at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia.
