About

With Chopin’s music as its playful heartbeat, The Concert is one of Jerome Robbins’s most delightful comedic ballets. I’ve always loved how its cast of wonderfully quirky characters turns a formal piano recital into a cascade of mischief and laughter. Irene Sharaff’s original costumes are charming, clever, and iconic—filled with humorous hats, fluttering butterfly wings, and perfectly timed visual gags. Re-creating these designs is a genuine joy, and an affectionate tribute to her wit and artistry.
