Under Artistic Director Michael Novak, Paul Taylor Dance Company returns to Lincoln Center for a dynamic, richly textured three-week season. Highlights include two World Premieres by its Resident Choreographers. Lauren Lovette unveils a new work set to John Adams’s Fearful Symmetries, while Robert Battle presents a new work featuring music by jazz composer Wycliffe Gordon.
Also on the program are the New York Premiere of How Love Sounds by Hope Boykin, and the return of Lovette’s SOLITAIRE and Jody Sperling’s Vive La Loïe! The Season marks the return of Mr. Taylor’s Beloved Renegade, with soprano Devon Guthrie and the St. George’s Choral Society, as well as the revival of his Emmy Award-winning Speaking in Tongues, an unflinching meditation on American extremism. Rounding out the season is a selection of Taylor masterworks, including Company B, Scudorama, Troilus and Cressida (reduced) and Esplanade.
The season features live music performed by Orchestra of St. Luke’s under the baton of David LaMarche and Tara Simoncic.
