Houston Ballet II is the exciting young company of acclaimed Houston Ballet, America’s fourth largest company with a 50 year history, a budget of $41.2 million and an endowment of $110.8 million. These stellar young dancers perform internationally – a range of excerpts from great classics like Sleeping Beauty and Coppelia in addition to contemporary works by George Balanchine, John Neumeier, and August Bournonville.
“The other Stanton piece was the 1995 “Blue”, to music by Vivaldi, a mesmerizing balletic romp with fresh twists that used the three movements of the composer’s well-known D-major Guitar Concerto in a logical and straightforward manner. It was marked by boundless flashes of movement: clocklike ensembles and strikingly contrasting solos. The self-assurance of these young dancers was astonishing: These dancers will go far.” – The Independent
