A much-anticipated highlight of UNCSA’s annual performance calendar, Winter Dance features the talents of students from both the contemporary and ballet programs performing works that highlight the breadth of UNCSA’s dance community. French choreographer and former Martha Graham principal dancer Pascal Rioult’s “Bolero” is set to Maurice Ravel’s soaring score, inviting the audience to experience the familiar theme in an entirely new light. George Balanchine’s “Concerto Barocco” is staged by High School ballet alumna Amanda Edge, with Johann Sebastian Bach’s timeless “Concerto for Two Violins in D minor” setting the tone. Faculty members Mikhail Tchoupakov, Jennet Zerbe and Phillip Broomhead stage Léo Delibes’ lighthearted “Coppélia Suite” and UNCSA Dean of Dance Endalyn T. Outlaw premieres an original contemporary work.
