The concert will premiere three new works by nationally renowned choreographers. Coming off her acclaimed commission, Out from Under, for Calgary, Canada's resident jazz dance company Decidedly Jazz Danceworks, Meadows Assistant Professor Brandi Coleman will create a new rhythm-driven, emotion-fueled work for the Meadows Dance Ensemble. Coleman's work “cuts an edge beyond conventional jazz rhythms consisting of dancers using their bodies as percussion, whispering rhythms as they move."—The Calgary Herald. N.E.A. award winning choreographer, Matthew Neenan, Co-founder of BalletX and resident choreographer for the Philadelphia Ballet, will create a new contemporary ballet bringing to Dallas “one of the most appealing and singular choreographic voices in ballet today”—The New York Times. Bessie award winning choreographer Larry Keigwin, celebrated for his electrifying and refreshing vision of dance, will close out the program with a new modern/contemporary work.
