Company Information:
Described as a deft ensemble…with engaging projection and an appealing largesse by Dance Magazine, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet is a company of eleven classically trained dancers who perform an eclectic repertoire by some of the world’s foremost choreographers. Celebrating its eighth season this year, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet performs year-round at home in Aspen and Santa Fe, and on tour throughout the United States.
In 1995, at the invitation of Aspen Ballet Company and School founder Bebe Schweppe, Jean-Philippe Malaty and Tom Mossbrucker moved from New York City to embark on a vision of creating a professional dance company based in Aspen. Aspen Santa Fe Ballet debuted at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in October 1996.
In 1999, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet became presenter of the Aspen Dance Festival, a five-week summer festival that brings world-class dance companies to Aspen.
In 1999 the company entered a co-venture with a presenting organization in Santa Fe and now performs under the name Aspen Santa Fe Ballet. This special partnership between the two cities that are known for their talented artist communities creates a unique cultural product and a strong dance presence in Aspen and Santa Fe.
