Stargazing, A Ballet by Miro Magloire with Music for Violin and Piano, at Mark Morris Dance Group (Site)
Friday November 22, 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
$42.39New Chamber Ballet presents the world premiere of Stargazing, an hour-long ballet choreographed by Miro Magloire to music by Christian-Frédéric Bloquert.
In celebration of the company’s 20th Anniversary Season, Stargazing is a rhapsodic phantasy that revolves around the interweaving of music and dance.
The choreography is performed in New Chamber Ballet’s signature, in-the-round setup, with the audience seated up-close and able to see the dancing from various angles.
Bloquert’s score, Memory, Forgot for violin and piano, subtly evokes and pays tribute to two iconic ballets: Tchaikovsky’s Serenade and Stravinsky’s Agon.
Performers include the dancers Anabel Alpert, Megan Foley, Nicole McGinnis, Amber Neff, Rachele Perla; as well as Madeline Hocking (violin) and Sophiko Simsive (piano).
The performance will be 60 minutes, and there will be no intermission.
