Recently formalizing the designation of Cal Performances as their home away from home, Morris and his gifted company return each year to give Berkeley audiences a premier look at the ever-growing and ever-fascinating body of work of "the most important choreographer since George Balanchine" (Boston Globe). In the second of two programs performed to live music, the ensemble returns with the world premiere of another Cal Performances-commissioned work, Rock of Ages, and Morris' celebrated V, a "stirring hymn to the human spirit" (The New York Times).
For more in-depth information on this event, see New and Notable.
Program: Rock of Ages, set to Schubert's Piano Trio in E-flat, D. 897; I Don't Want to Love, set to Monteverdi madrigals; Marble Halls, set to Bach's Concerto for Oboe, Violin, Strings & Basso Continuo in C minor, BWV 1060; V, set to Schumann's Quintet in E-flat major, Op. 44
