In a 1946 letter, Kirstein stated, "The only justification I have is to enable Balanchine to do exactly what he wants to do in the way he wants to do it."[https://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/04/books/04Book.html?pagewanted=print Alastair Macaulay, "A Paragon of the Arts, as Both Man and Titan"] (review of Martin Duberman, The Worlds of Lincoln Kirstein), Books of the Times, New York Times, 4 May 2007, accessed 5 January 2015 He served as the company's General Director from 1946 to 1989, developing and sustaining it by his organizational and fundraising abilities.

The company was named New York City Ballet in 1948 when it became resident at City Center of Music and Drama.{{cite news | url = http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F70A11FB385D13728DDDAE0A94DE405B8888F1D3 | title = The Dance: City Ballet | work = The New York Times | last = Martin | first = John | author-link = John Martin (dance critic) | date = June 27, 1948 | access-date = 2009-06-28}}{{cite news | url = http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50E13FE345F167B93C0A8178BD95F4C8485F9 | title = City Ballet Group in First Program; Works by Balanchine Offered by Unit as Series of Dance Performances Begins | work = The New York Times | last = Martin | first = John | author-link = John Martin (dance critic) | date = October 12, 1948}} Its success was marked by its move to the New York State Theater, now David H. Koch Theater, designed by Philip Johnson to Balanchine's specifications. City Ballet became the first ballet company in the United States to have two permanent venue engagements: one at Lincoln Center's David H. Koch Theater on 63rd Street in Manhattan, and another at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, in Saratoga Springs, New York. The School of American Ballet (S.A.B.), which Balanchine founded, is the training school of the company.

After the company's move to the State Theater, Balanchine's creativity as a choreographer flourished. He created works that were the basis of the company's repertory until his death in 1983. He worked closely with choreographer Jerome Robbins, who resumed his connection with the company in 1969 after having produced works for Broadway.

NYCB still has the largest repertoire by far of any American ballet company. It often stages 60 ballets or more in its winter and spring seasons at Lincoln Center each year, and 20 or more in its summer season in Saratoga Springs. City Ballet has performed The Nutcracker, Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and many more. City Ballet has trained and developed many great dancers since its formation. Many dancers with already developed reputations have also joined the ballet as principal dancers:

{{Category see also|New York City Ballet Salute to Italy}}

In 1960, Balanchine mounted City Ballet's Salute to Italy with premieres of Monumentum pro Gesualdo and Variations from Don Sebastian (called the Donizetti Variations since 1961), as well as performances of his La Sonnambula and Lew Christensen's Con Amore. The performance was repeated in 1968.

=== Stravinsky Festival {{Anchor|Stravinsky Festival}} ===

{{Category see also|New York City Ballet Stravinsky Festival}}

In 1972, Balanchine offered an eight-day tribute to the composer, his great collaborator, who had died the year before. His programs included twenty-two new works of his own dances, plus works by choreographers Todd Bolender, John Clifford, Lorca Massine, Jerome Robbins, Richard Tanner, and John Taras, as well as repertory ballets by Balanchine and Robbins. Balanchine created Symphony in Three Movements, Duo Concertant, and Violin Concerto for the occasion. He and Robbins co-choreographed and performed in Pulcinella. Balanchine had produced an earlier Stravinsky festival in 1937 as balletmaster of the American Ballet while engaged by the Metropolitan Opera. The composer conducted the April 27th premiere of Card Party.

=== Ravel Festival {{Anchor|Ravel Festival}} ===

In 1975, Balanchine paid his respects to the French composer Maurice Ravel with a two-week Hommage à Ravel. Balanchine, Robbins, Jacques d'Amboise, and Taras made sixteen new ballets for the occasion. Repertory ballets were performed as well. High points included Balanchine's Le Tombeau de Couperin and Robbins' Mother Goose.

=== Tschaikovsky Festival {{Anchor|Tschaikovsky Festival}} ===

In 1981, Balanchine planned a two-week NYCB festival honoring the Russian composer Peter Ilyitch Tschaikovsky. Balanchine, Joseph Duell, d'Amboise, Peter Martins, Robbins, and Taras created twelve new dances. In addition to presenting these and repertory ballets, Balanchine re-choreographed his Mozartiana from 1933. Philip Johnson and John Burgee's stage setting of translucent tubing was designed to be hung and lit in different architectural configurations throughout the entire festival.A festival of the same name is planned for 2013.

{{Category see also|New York City Ballet Stravinsky Centennial Celebration}}

In 1982, Balanchine organized a centennial celebration in honor of his long-time collaborator Igor Stravinsky, during which the City Ballet performed twenty-five ballets set to the composer's music. Balanchine made three new ballets, Tango, Élégie, and Persephone, and a new version of Variations.{{cite news | url = https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9902E2DD163BF932A25755C0A964948260 | title = City Ballet opens 8-day celebration of Stravinsky | work = The New York Times | first = Jennifer | last = Dunning | date = June 11, 1982 | access-date = 2009-06-28}} The choreographer died the following year. Balanchine's 50th Anniversary Celebration was held by the company in 2002.

On April 26, 1984, NYCB celebrated the 20th anniversary of the New York State Theater. The program started with Igor Stravinsky's Fanfare for a New Theater, followed by Stravinsky's arrangement of The Star-Spangled Banner. The ballets included three of Balanchine's works, Serenade, Stravinsky Violin Concerto, and Sonatine; and Jerome Robbins' Afternoon of a Faun. The performers included Maria Calegari, Kyra Nichols, Heather Watts, Leonid Kozlov, Afshin Mofid, Patricia McBride, Helgi Tomasson, Karin von Aroldingen, Lourdes Lopez, Bart Cook, and Joseph Duell.{{cite news | first = Jack | last = Anderson | url = https://www.nytimes.com/1984/04/26/arts/city-ballet-a-20-year-celebration.html | title = City Ballet: A 20-Year Celebration | work = The New York Times | date = April 26, 1984 | access-date = 2009-05-02}}

After Balanchine's death in 1983, Peter Martins was selected as balletmaster of the company. After 30 years, Martins was judged to have maintained the New York City Ballet's financial security and the musicality and performance level of the dancers, but he has not emphasized the Balanchine style to the extent that many observers expected he would. Martins retired from his position in 2018.

{{Category see also|New York City Ballet American Music Festival}}

For the company's 40th anniversary, Martins held an American Music Festival, having commissioned dances from choreographers Laura Dean, Eliot Feld, William Forsythe, Lar Lubovitch, Paul Taylor. He also presented ballets by George Balanchine and Robbins. The programs included world premieres of more than twenty dances. Martins contributed Barber Violin Concerto, Black and White, The Chairman Dances, A Fool for You, Fred and George, Sophisticated Lady, Tanzspiel, Tea-Rose, and The Waltz Project.

A major component of the Spring 2008 season was a celebration of Jerome Robbins; major revivals were mounted of the following ballets:

The 66-member NYCB Orchestra is an important symphonic institution in its own right, having played for virtually all of the thousands of performances NYCB has given over the decades. It is one of the most versatile orchestras in the world, on any given week performing perhaps three or four times the repertoire that another symphony might be expected to do.{{cite web|title=New York City Ballet Orchestra Musicians |url=https://nycbo.org/ |publisher=nycbo.org|access-date=27 April 2017}} Principal players of the orchestra also perform the majority of the concertos, other solos, and chamber music in the NYCB repertory as well. The orchestra accompanies the ballet on all of its North American tours, and while the ballet uses local orchestras on its international tours, members of the NYCB Orchestra often go along as soloists or extras.

Besides the members of the orchestra, the NYCB has six pianists on full-time staff.{{cite web|title=NYCB Orchestra|url=http://www.nycballet.com/Discover/Orchestra.aspx|website=NYCB|access-date=27 April 2017}} They all perform in the pit with the orchestra on a regular basis.

The NYCB Orchestra also occasionally accompanies dance companies from other cities at the Koch Theater. These have included the Australian Ballet in the Spring 2012,{{cite news| url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/18/arts/dance/swan-lake-by-australian-ballet-at-koch-theater.html | work=The New York Times | title='Swan Lake' by Australian Ballet at Koch Theater | date=17 June 2012 | access-date=April 27, 2017| last1=MacAulay | first1=Alastair }} and the San Francisco Ballet{{cite news| url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/19/arts/dance/san-francisco-ballet-in-ratmansky-and-morris-works.html?ref=dance | work=The New York Times | title=San Francisco Ballet in Ratmansky and Morris Works | date=18 October 2013 |access-date=April 27, 2017| last1=Seibert | first1=Brian }} in the Fall 2013.
