“I want to show that ballet isn’t like some machine where we’ve used up all of its potential, so it has to be replaced. Ballet still has someplace to evolve.”

"In Querencia, Masero’s innovation is apparent in the dance’s connective tissue — the way they get from one pose to the next, share their weight in supported adagio, move with more fluidity and just take up more space on stage"

"Schubertiada liberated dancers to enjoy themselves as their individual voices added texture to the whole, like timbres of instruments in an orchestra"

"In the classical ballet tradition, both men and women are required to adhere to strict gender norms. But Masero’s innately musical Schubertiada gave 12 men and one woman relative freedom from those strictures, and the result was a refreshingly buoyant piece"

"The piece was a heaping dose of lovely. A musing on joy, comfort, and strength, Querencia is a meaningful showcase for the 10 dancers who commanded the stage with complicated lifts — often performed in unison — powerful jumps and polished brisés"
