Full Price:
$55.00 - $65.00
Our Price:
$27.50 - $32.50

Harris Theater for Music and Dance welcomes pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi and his orchestra, who will perform original repertoire from his latest album, In a Time Lapse. Einaudi is known for is contemporary approach to classical composition, combining classical, folk and world music traditions with pop and rock influences. In a Time Lapse was composed over a period of two years and was developed as a suite in the form of a novel, with different chapters. 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. Einaudi's signature melding of contemporary and classical influences is the perfect instrument for this musical reflection on the concept of time. Learn More

The dancers were talented. But the production&background were minimum. Random selections without any core theme to tie dance performances together. Reminded us of a highschool recital.

I went to see the show based on the previous show that had many tangos and very interesting modern pieces. Was disappointed that they had too few tango pieces and modern pieces were weaker that before.

In particular, the piece with balls was awful. This is supposed to be a professional dance show not in the level of freshman college students.

Description

Additional selections from RNDC’s acclaimed repertoire include:

  • Evolution of a Dream, a full-company re-envisioning of one of RNDC’s classic and signature works “Reality of a Dreamer,” created by Co-Artistic Director Emerita Sherry Zunker in 1992. The piece is set to a new version of the original song, “Sweet Dreams,” by co-composers Annie Lennox and David Stewart as performed by His Rock Fabulous Orchestra.
  •  
  • Fixé, a revival of Artistic Director Frank Chaves’ first choreographed duet. It is a haunting, animalistic and other-worldly pas de deux. Set to music from Cirque du Soleil, this performance is both elegantly romantic and abstract.
  •  
  • Train, choreographed by Robert Battle, Artistic Director for Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. This commanding and bold work is an abstract ritual in three parts set to a percussive live recording.
