Classical music and dance have more in common than you think.
Aside from the obvious connections, both artistic mediums seem to constantly battle against the perception that they are passé. The misconception that it’s all been done, or that it isn’t relevant any more is one that seems to persist. This couldn’t be farther from the truth.
The SSO created After Dark to push boundaries. There is an abundance of contemporary music out there and our musicians are always excited to be able to explore works that don’t fit in our regular concert series.
Free Flow Dance Company is known for its innovative and modern choreography. They are constantly thinking outside the box when it comes to movement and performance spaces. Free flow brings dance to people who may not traditionally attend what we think of as a stereotypical dance performance.
This is why After Dark and Free Flow are a perfect fit. Joined by Free Flow dancers and choreographer Jackie Latendresse the concert features the music of living composers including Gyula Csapo, Don Sweete, Max Richter, and many more. After Dark will make you rethink what a concert should be. Think new music meets cocktail party. Think contemporary dance meets sound experiment. Think pub trivia meets concert.
After Dark tickets are available here. There are limited seats for each performance so make sure to save your spot!
Friday September 30th & October 1st at 8pm in the SSO office (408 20th St).
