The Portrait Project

Periapsis Music and Dance presents "The Portrait Project," a set of six new works for solo dancer and solo musician sharing the stage. Each was created by a different guest choreographer in collaboration with a commissioned composer. Join us for an evening of music and dance conceived and performed as one!

The program will also include an excerpt of a group work by resident choreographers Erin Dillon and Hannah Weber. A post-performance discussion will conclude each evening's program.

Guest choreographers:
Joshua Beamish, Seán Curran, Miro Magloire, Helen Simoneau, Katarzyna Skarpetowska, Manuel Vignoulle

Composers:
Richard Carrick, Shawn Jaeger, Jonathan Howard Katz, Mary Kouyoumdjian

Music for three works from The Portrait Project was commissioned by the Charles and Joan Gross Family Foundation.
