Lar Lubovitch Dance Company's long-awaited return to The Joyce is a jam-packed, two-week season! Program A is an all-jazz evening in which Lubovitch re-imagines the choreographic possibilities of jazz. It features the world premiere performance of Coltrane's Favorite Things, set to an iconic recording of John Coltrane's interpretation of the Richard Rodgers song "My Favorite Things" and incorporating Jackson Pollock's "Autumn Rhythm;" Nature Boy: Kurt Elling, set to the unique renditions of classic jazz standards by the Kurt Elling Ensemble; and Elemental Brubeck, set to lively tracks from Dave Brubeck's 1963 album, Time Changes.
Program B includes Elemental Brubeck and Coltrane's Favorite Things, and also features the world premiere of Dogs of War, a duet for two men set to music from Prokofiev's War Sonatas, and Vita Nova, a stunning duet drawn from Lubovitch's longer 1999 dance titled Meadow (created and premiered on American Ballet Theater).
