Review of their performance at UC Davis last week

Born in France to Albanian parents, Angelin Preljocaj (“PREL-jzoh-cahjz”) founded his first dance company in December 1984. After various iterations, it became Ballet Preljocaj in 1996, when it gained a permanent home in Aix-en-Provence. Preljocaj creates one or two works per year, for his own company and for others. In 20 years, he has choreographed 38 pieces, eight of which are performed internationally.
