GroundWorks DanceTheater Presents: Dawn of a Revolution

What is at the heart of our ability to imagine and wonder in new and different ways?

Audience members might ask themselves this question and more during Dawn of a Revolution, GroundWorks DanceTheater’s creative collaboration with ChamberFest Cleveland. The season finale event, taking place on Saturday, June 30 at 7:30pm at the Maltz Performing Arts Center, will include works by Debussy, Ligeti, Beethoven, Ravel and Shostakovich, the world premiere of Sebastian Chang’s Cryptogenic Infrastructure Fantasy for violin, clarinet, percussion and piano, and choreography by GroundWorks’ own Executive Artistic Director David Shimotakahara.

“Our first collaboration with ChamberFest in 2014 set Tan Dun’s magical Ghost Opera vividly into motion, and was truly a memorable experience,” says Shimotakahara. “For our new project, I was so intrigued by Diana and Frank’s concept of linking distinctive chamber pieces from across time through György Ligeti’s innovative Musica Ricercata. It is sure to be a fantastic music-movement journey.”

ChamberFest was launched in 2012 by the Cleveland Orchestra principal clarinet Franklin Cohen and his daughter, Diana Cohen, concertmaster of the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, with the mission of nurturing a deep family-like connection between musicians and audiences of all ages. ChamberFest is now the region’s only chamber music festival, creating thematic programming for unique chamber music experiences in a variety of venues around town.

Artists performing in this creative collaboration include:

  1. Noah Bendix-Balgley, violin

  2. Noah Geller, violin

  3. Matthew Lipman, viola

  4. Julie Albers, cello

  5. Franklin Cohen, clarinet

  6. Roman Rabinovich, piano

  7. Alexander Cohen, percussion

Tickets are available here.
