"Chopin Tribute" truly resonates when Sewell finds the balance between the playfulness and romantic beauty within the music. These moments are defined by elegant lifts, small hand gestures that flutter lightly with the rhythmic tones, solos tailor-made to the dancers' distinct personalities, or intentionally awkward interactions that reveal a sense of vulnerability. Majewski's playing is generous and all of the performers respond with joy in their steps.
