Saw last Sunday's Matinee SF Ballet performance of
Ballanchine's Serenade, Apollo, and Four Temperaments.
Overall this was a phenomenal performance. It looks to
me like the SF Ballet has moved up a notch in overall
depth in the 2-3 years since I last saw them. The dancing
was crisp and beautiful. It must have been something to
have seen Apollo in 1928 when it premiered.

I'm hoping to check out the upcoming Ashton (re. Royal
Ballet famous choreographer) program later this month,
which should be equally fabulous.

Now I just have to see the NYC Ballet again (saw them
in 1999, stunning to say the least).
