Paul Taylor molded the dance company that bears his name into one of the preeminent performing ensembles in the world, leading it until his death, and now under the leadership of Artistic Director Michael Novak.
In this program, the company premieres a new work by Peter Chu, a Northrop Centennial Commission, paired with two classic Taylor works, the sublime masterpiece, Airs—hailed as “a treasure” by The New York Times—and Promethean Fire, set to three keyboard works by Bach as richly orchestrated by Stokowski.
