10/4 The Martha Graham Dance Company's 100th Season With a Special Centennial Creation by Bernstein, Rountree, and Boykin
|
Posted By: Hija Chang on October 02, 2025 The Martha Graham Dance Company’s centennial continues with three monumental pieces: Graham’s 1947 Night Journey, a rarely seen work based on Oedipus; We the People, with a folk score by Rhiannon Giddens, a 2024 creation inspired by Graham’s longstanding sociopolitical critique; and a world premiere entitled En Masse that extends The Soraya’s commitment to Graham’s collaborations with composers. This new commission, choreographed by Hope Boykin, is a first-ever pairing of Graham and Leonard Bernstein. Their posthumous partnership, inspired by a musical excerpt discovered in their correspondence, headlines Graham’s worldwide centennial. Wild Up performs Christopher Rountree’s new arrangement of Bernstein, as well as William Schuman’s score for Night Journey. Generously underwritten by Christopher Sales Media Sponsor: KCRW Sat Oct 4 | 8PM Price includes all fees. Ticket prices $59–$117 https://tickets.thesoraya.org/Online/mapSe...
