This program of three works by William Forsythe set to the music of James Blake has special meaning for La Scala Ballet. Its opening dance, “Prologue,” was set on the company in 2023, when it premiered with “The Barre Project” and “Blake Work I” under the program title of “Blake Works V.” The program’s return two years later revives its joyful earlier reception. On the final evening of a seven-night run, the program added up to an evening that showed off the company as a whole.
