Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Arts, Performances
Registration required. Fee required. Tickets required.

A collaboration among legends, this bold, highly collaborative work explores universal themes through the shared language of music and dance. Cellist Maya Beiser, who conceived the piece, has been described by Rolling Stone as a "cello rock star," and is a veteran of the world's most revered stages. Wendy Whelan, widely considered one of the world's leading dancers, spent 30 years as a principal dancer with New York City Ballet and originated numerous roles in new works by the world's most esteemed choreographers. The two will be onstage all evening, embodying the iconic choreography of Lucinda Childs (a Commandeur in France's Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and 2018 inductee in Hall of Fame at the National Museum of Dance) to the original music of Pulitzer Prize-winner David Lang.

The performance on Friday, April 8 will be followed by a Q&A with the artists.
