In The Pink

What’s not to like? World class ballet set to the strains of Pink Martini, a popular Portland-based orchestra that spans genres of classical music, traditional pop, Latin music and jazz? You bet! What fun, witnessing a unique combination of music and dance on Sunday, February 18 at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts in Eugene.

Eugene Ballet performers had compelling stage presence as they spun, floated and leapt their way across the stage to a mesmerizing musical backdrop provided by Pink Martini, who filled the hall with classical, jazz and world beat ensembles. The performance was a delectable confection for both the eyes and the ears.
