SUMMERSCAPE DANCE
The world premiere of Song of Songs, a major dance setting of the biblical love poem, was designated a New York Times Critic’s Pick. The collage of sound, song, and movement reimagined ancient rituals of love and courtship. Created by Fisher Center Choreographer in Residence Pam Tanowitz with music from Pulitzer Prize– and Grammy-winning composer David Lang, the piece was a “refined, restrained, and sometimes breathtakingly beautiful response to the poem,” according to Times reviewer Brian Seibert.
