The Company’s 2020 performances feature beloved pieces from Graham’s repertory including her bewitching riff on the Odysseus myth, Circe; and her stirring anti-war statement Chronicle. Programs will also offer works by some of today’s top choreographers including Pam Tanowitz, Maxine Doyle, and Bobbi Jene Smith, and a premiere by groundbreaking choreographer Andrea Miller. All performances feature live music performed by The Mannes Orchestra under the baton of David Hayes.
Program:
Schuman – Night Journey
Hovhaness – Circe
Copland – Appalachian Spring
Riegger – Chronicle
Lloyd – Panorama
After a very successful collaboration with MGDC in 2014, Mannes was invited to collaborate in Spring 2018 in a series of performances of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring (RoS). The MGDC collaboration has been so successful that Mannes and David Hayes received a standing invitation from the Artistic Director of MGDC to perform with them on a bi-annual basis.
