Can We Know the Sound of Forgiveness?

Can We Know the Sound of Forgiveness?

The Crossing @ Carnegie Hall
Gabriela Ortiz’s Tierra Parte I, Tierra Parte II, and Rio Bravo

Friday, October 18 @ 7:30pm

Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall
New York City

Does an Earth (that does not know its name) have the will to survive us, heal us, forgive us? It is a question of life and Gabriela Ortiz dives in with characteristic driving rhythmic energy and the shadows of dance. Celebration and Lamentation joined together in a multi-media evening of theatre and dance. 

Art of James Drake, dancers of the Alvin Ailey School
Produced and presented by Steven Jimenez

The atoms that make up our bodies were forged in violent explosions of distant stars, spreading debris throughout the universe. †
