Program Four – Notes Unspoken at FSU Center for the Performing Arts

Program Four - Notes Unspoken January 30th – February 2, 2026 FSU Center for the Performing Arts

Program Four introduces the Company’s third World Premiere of the Season with the addition of a new ballet by choreographer Gemma Bond. Over the past several years, Bond has received commissions from several renowned ballet companies worldwide. In celebration of the 90th anniversary of the ballet’s world premiere, Antony Tudor’s Lilac Garden returns to the Company’s repertoire as it unfolds under the backdrop of an evening garden party in Edwardian England. Concluding with Ricardo Graziano’s Valsinhas, Portuguese for “little waltzes,” Program Four’s ending sees a gender split cast, with one entirely female and the other entirely male, all with the same choreography.

Repertoire will include:

WORLD PREMIERE Choreography by Gemma Bond Music to be announced

Lilac Garden Choreography by Antony Tudor Music by Ernest Chausson

Valsinhas Choreography by Ricardo Graziano Music by Franz Schubert
