25 March 2004
Boston Ballet presented the world premiere of Jorma Elo’s Plan to B set to the music of Henrich Ignaz von Bieber. It was the second world premiere that Elo created for Boston Ballet while he was still dancing with Netherlands Dance Theatre. The company debuted the work on stage at the Wang Theatre in a program alongside the work of Mark Morris, George Balanchine, and Val Caniparoli. The company brought the piece on tour to Jacob’s Pillow and City Center in New York later in 2004.
