Following its acclaimed world premiere at the Mostly Mozart Festival at Lincoln Center, Mark Morris's latest evening-length work receives its West Coast premiere at Cal Performances. Rich and rewarding, the piece inspired John Rockwell of the New York Times to write "after only a first viewing, I feel safe in pronouncing it a masterpiece, a triumph...and one of Mr. Morris's greatest achievements." Set to two Mozart piano concertos—No. 11 in F (K. 413) and No. 27 in B-flat (K. 595)—flanking his Sonata in D for Two Pianos (K. 448), and danced against a backdrop of visuals by Howard Hodgkin, it has already been deemed the equal in choreography of Morris's L'Allegro, il Penseroso ed il Moderato.

Sponsored by Liz and Greg Lutz

Commissioned by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (New York), New Crowned Hope (Vienna), and the Barbican Centre (London), in association with Cal Performances, Berkeley.
