The British choreographer Richard Alston — a choreographer whose sheer musicality is on the same exalted level as Mark Morris and Balanchine — is breaking up his company; this is their final U.S. tour.  You'll want to know that his pieces here are to Britten (the last piece he'll create for the company), Monteverdi, and Brahms.  And if you've been wondering what the ab fab Gelsey Bell would sound like singing Britten, here's your chance to find out.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  While you're in Montclair, it wouldn't hurt to visit the excellent Laurel & Sage.
