"My intention is to make sure that the new work being created for the ballet world is relevant." — Justin Peck

I think ballet is pretty open about what music is used, actually.

For me, the choreography always comes from the music.

There needs to be more encouragement and support for women - at an impressionable age - to explore that choreographic side of their brains.

I feel like there is a different, new energy when I collaborate with a living artist, whether it be a composer, designer, lighting designer. I love that process.
