...first orchestral flourish, the corps strikes a series of sassy poses, which melt away at Maria Calegari's bluesy, ruminative entrance. During an extended first-movement pas de deux, Kistler and Christopher d'Amboise follow the music's every twist and unexpected turn, illustrating its ripples with flowing figurations of their own. The third movement's bold, thrusting opening is similarly reflected in the dance, which includes some rapid-fire footwork for D'Amboise inspired by the rat-a-tat-tat of the piano. Paradoxically, Robbins is most, and least, successful with his extended bagatelle...
...what we need is a change in people. Some method to galvanize Americans, to melt down our passions and prejudices, remove our impurities, and re-shape us as caring men and women.

...will be as if Washington and Wall Street were suspended in mid-air, their uncertainties less consequential than the outcome of the next forward pass or the next end run. The ideological differences between George Bush and Ted Kennedy will melt into a secondary realm, only to be replaced with an equally ferocious and nearly as time-honored competition. Harvard will be jeered as the Kremlin on the Charles: Yale will be lambasted as Tory Blue. A sense of unabashed partisanship will grip two academic centers of power that usually strive for balance and objectivity...
