Within the music you can hear you can hear echoes of baroque and Italian folk music, late romantic strings textures, and a wide variety of colors between percussions and electronics.

Written on May 24 2011Having just seen Alvin Ailey which was marvelous - with some breathtaking soloists - and even though the second number was an Ailey piece, I just didn't find the passion and the interesting correography which we saw at the CSO Hubbard St. Performance. We were sitting way back at Harris - perhaps that had something to do with our feelings.

Written on May 23 20113 gripping ballets that showed off the company's abilities brilliantly: Supple, sensual, athletic, quirky, jerky and smooth. Hubbard can do it all and do it all beautifully. Chorographically and musically fascinating.

Written on May 23 2011It was fantastic! The choreography allowed each dancer to showcase his or her own personality through movement---one of my favorite performances so far.
