SUMMARY:Echoes of Conscience
DESCRIPTION:Voices of the French resistance\nConcert Highlights: The spirit of Josephine Baker with chanteuse Jacqueline Tabor \nWorld Premiere Dance Commission\nDarius Milhaud\, La création du monde\nDonald Byrd\, Spectrum Dance Theater\n\n\nDarius Milhaud’s La Création du Monde was inspired by the composer’s trip to Harlem. For this daring ballet work\, he drew on a blend of jazz and classical idioms to imagine the creation of the world according to African myths. Few details remain of the original choreography\, but Music of Remembrance has commissioned Spectrum Dance Theater’s award-winning Donald Byrd to create a new dance score for this captivating work that evokes the experimental aura of Paris in the 1920s.\n  \nMilhaud was part of “Les Six\,” a group of six young French composers who shared a reaction to stylistic conventions of their day\, and sought clarity\, wit\, and modernity in their music. Several of them were active in the French resistance under Nazi occupation\, and our program features songs in which they and others dared to set eloquent poetic words of protest by banned authors like Louis Aragon and Paul Éluard. \nFew artists have fused art and activism as powerfully as Josephine Baker\, the legendary singer and dancer who escaped racism in America to become an icon of resistance and freedom in France. We feature chanteuse Jacqueline Tabor in a medley of songs that Baker made famous – songs of love\, liberty and an unshakable spirit. \nFeaturing:\nSpectrum Dance Theater \nGuest Artists:\nMichael Brockman\, saxophone\nJacqueline Tabor\, chanteuse\nOsama Afifi\, double bass\nJohn Hansen\, piano\nRosamund Dyer\, mezzo-soprano \n2025 David Tonkonogui Memorial Award recipient:\nTom Wang\, clarinet \nMusic of Remembrance Ensemble:\nLaura DeLuca\, clarinet; Mikhail Shmidt\, violin; Natasha Bazhanov\, violin\nSusan Gulkis Assadi\, viola; Walter Gray\, cello; Cristina Valdes\, piano

SUMMARY:Localities/An Odyssey Pt. 2
DESCRIPTION:Localities/An Odyssey is inspired by Donald Byrd’s unpublished memoir and charts a deeply personal and poetic journey through memory\, identity\, and artistic formation. More impressionistic than narrative\, the work unfolds as a series of choreographic vignettes—“islands” in a sea of recollection—that explore pivotal moments in Byrd’s life\, from his Jim Crow-era childhood in Florida to his experiences at elite academic institutions in the Northeast\, and the artistic crucibles of New York and Los Angeles. Performed by Spectrum Dance Theater company members\, the work weaves together abstract movement\, spoken memoir\, and music by composers ranging from J.S. Bach to contemporary percussion ensembles. Byrd’s narration—raw\, lyrical\, and emotionally unflinching—grounds the work in lived experience while allowing the dance to suggest a deeper\, more elusive truth. Rather than a straightforward autobiography\, Localities offers a meditation on ambition\, addiction\, alienation\, joy\, and longing. Byrd’s signature choreographic language—athletic\, rigorous\, and emotionally incisive—becomes a vehicle for self-examination\, remembrance\, and ultimately\, a search for meaning through the body in motion. \nLocalities/An Odyssey\, Pt. 1 marked the beginning of a larger project —a memoir-in-motion that defies conventional structure in favor of an episodic\, sensory\, and deeply human approach to storytelling. Pt. 2 continues the journey.

SUMMARY:OCCURRENCE 14
DESCRIPTION:Spectrum Dance Theater is proud to continue its OCCURRENCE series\, a bold and imaginative choreographic format first introduced on March 20\, 2016\, at La Usina del Arte in Buenos Aires\, Argentina. \nPremiered as the culminating public presentation of a U.S. Embassy residency\, OCCURRENCE #1 was modeled on the spirit of a Merce Cunningham EVENT—a performance constructed of complete dances\, excerpts\, and new sequences arranged specifically for the site\, often layered with multiple actions occurring simultaneously. \nWhat distinguishes OCCURRENCE within Artistic Director Donald Byrd’s body of work is its deliberate embrace of experimentation\, process\, and choreographic play. “This is my playtime\,” says Byrd. “It’s when I get to nerd out as a choreographer. I recombine past work with new material\, guided by imagination and the pursuit of the next right thing to do.” \nIn the OCCURRENCE series\, Byrd reconfigures choreographic elements like a child rearranging blocks—placing familiar sequences in new contexts\, layering movement phrases not originally meant to coexist\, shifting background moments to the foreground\, and exploring the impact of music\, or its absence. Each OCCURRENCE becomes a one-of-a-kind dance collage: ephemeral\, rigorous\, and alive with possibility.

SUMMARY:OCCURRENCE 14
DESCRIPTION:Spectrum Dance Theater is proud to continue its OCCURRENCE series\, a bold and imaginative choreographic format first introduced on March 20\, 2016\, at La Usina del Arte in Buenos Aires\, Argentina. \nPremiered as the culminating public presentation of a U.S. Embassy residency\, OCCURRENCE #1 was modeled on the spirit of a Merce Cunningham EVENT—a performance constructed of complete dances\, excerpts\, and new sequences arranged specifically for the site\, often layered with multiple actions occurring simultaneously. \nWhat distinguishes OCCURRENCE within Artistic Director Donald Byrd’s body of work is its deliberate embrace of experimentation\, process\, and choreographic play. “This is my playtime\,” says Byrd. “It’s when I get to nerd out as a choreographer. I recombine past work with new material\, guided by imagination and the pursuit of the next right thing to do.” \nIn the OCCURRENCE series\, Byrd reconfigures choreographic elements like a child rearranging blocks—placing familiar sequences in new contexts\, layering movement phrases not originally meant to coexist\, shifting background moments to the foreground\, and exploring the impact of music\, or its absence. Each OCCURRENCE becomes a one-of-a-kind dance collage: ephemeral\, rigorous\, and alive with possibility.

SUMMARY:Spectrum Dance Theater: OCCURRENCE 13
DESCRIPTION:OCCURRENCE is a program that combines old and new movement ideas\, showcasing them together and offering new perspectives. It also allows different works to be performed simultaneously\, creating exciting new moments and insights into familiar works and bringing joy to the newly arranged material. \nOCCURRENCE #13 is a future world that is also “Now.” A disembodied voice instructs behavior; another defines geek and distinguishes it from nerd; a man instructs ChatGPT to analyze fragments of his memory\, and future memories and an interpretation of a social media clip. \nOCCURRENCE #13 begins our Season on Friday the 31sr\, Halloween – Boo! \nOpening Night: Performance plus Halloween Party. \n*The performance is NOT Halloween-themed.
