WINTER CONCERT

Presented by Paul and Kathleen Matecki

FEBRUARY 27-March 2, 2025

Our winter concert will bring captivating evenings of dance to our audiences. Join us as we present 4 unique programs that highlight our journey towards new levels of artistic excellence and technical integrity! Be the first to witness the company premiere of the renowned Sechs Tänze by Jiří Kylián (Prague, CSR), who served as artistic director and house choreographer of Nederlands Dans Theater for more than thirty years. This program also features the 1942 solo Chaconne by dance pioneer José Limón (Culiacan, MX), blending the formal austerity of the traditional Mexican dance with the powerful emotion of the music, and the return of Notes on a Farewell by Guggenheim Fellow Tommie-Waheed Evans.
