The Four Temperaments
The Four Temperaments
George Balanchine’s The Four Temperaments is one of his first experimental works, merging classic steps with a refined and angular style. The ballet is inspired by the mediaeval belief that human beings are made up of four different moods which determine a person’s temperament.
