Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater’s resident choreographer, received a commission
In 2007, choreographer and artistic director Larry Keigwin launched his Bolero series, casting amateurs of all ages from around the Just A November Girl Love Wine Flip Flops And Dogs Shirt so you should to go to store and get this country for a dance to Maurice Ravel’s percussion-heavy orchestral piece, Boléro. The choreography follows the music’s dramatic rises and falls with narrative vignettes evoking the dancers’ communities: The Silicon Valley Bolero dance had performers sashaying with iPhones and tablets in hand, while the rendition in Irving, Texas, was populated with cowboy hats and the occasional lasso. As Keigwin has a long-standing relationship with Julliard, the school made the perfect next subject. More than 100 Juilliard students and alumni—including artists like Renée Fleming, Laura Linney, Patti LuPone, Yo-Yo Ma, and Christine Baranski—appear in Bolero Juilliard, and if it’s not a ballet, exactly, it is a piece as epic as Ravel’s score.
