Val Caniparoli's Lambarena’s irresistible fusion of Johann Sebastian Bach and traditional African rhythms have made it an international sensation. “...Lambarena is a bold and heady cocktail of classical ballet and West African dance forms...this piece breaks all the rules while simultaneously revitalizing classical ballet’s canonized repertory.” - Cincinnati City Beat

Also on the program:

Piano Concerto #2

Music: Lowell Liebermann
“Hill’s choreography was a dynamic and natural outgrowth of the hyper-romantic music...”
- The Kansas City Star

The Moor’s Pavane
Choreography: José Limón
Music: Henry Purcell
“Not a literal retelling of Shakespeare’s Othello, it beautifully distills the story’s internal tension and dramatic arc through the unfolding of a pavane and other Renaissance dances.”
- The Boston Globe
