麻豆视频 Ballet will present its FALL BALLET October, 17, 18, 19, in the Riney Fine Arts Center鈥檚 Sebits Auditorium. This performance will present two new ballets from Denver choreographer James Wallace and Dominic Walsh, former Principal of The Houston Ballet and Director of Dominic Walsh Dance Theatre in Houston, Texas. These two different choreographers spent two weeks this fall with the Friends dancers and produced two dynamic works especially for Friends Ballet.
James Wallace from Denver choreographed a piece by Max Richter that is challenging, beautiful and somewhat of a departure for the Ballet program. It is called 鈥淭he End is the Beginning鈥 and shows relationships in the human lives of individuals and how people work through and resolve the problems in their life. Dominic Walsh, from Houston, has choreographed a neo-classical ballet 鈥淧iano Works鈥 to the musical composition of Griffes. This piece is washed with movement like Balanchine鈥檚 鈥淎gon鈥 and 鈥淭he Four Temperaments鈥 but with a contemporary twist. All of the evening鈥檚 ballets are pointe pieces.
Ending the performance is a reprieve of Director, Stan K. Rogers鈥 presentation of 鈥淲ith A Song鈥 A frequently requested favorite with music by Richard Rodgers. Beautiful scenery, lights and costumes bring this piece to life with favorite tunes 鈥淲ith a Song in my Heart鈥, 鈥淔alling in Love鈥 and many others.
