Light the way to a greater understanding of the space and structure around us with the NYC premiere of An Evening of Math & Dance: Differential Cohomology; Dance of the Diagram.
Barkin/Selissen Project, a forward-thinking New York City-based contemporary dance company, in conjunction with the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, presents two evenings (April 29 & 30th,) of unique mathematics-inspired contemporary dance, followed by a panel discussion featuring notable mathematicians and choreographers collaborating in and across fields. Moderated by Heather Berlin both nights, and with special guest Ira Flatow on Friday 4/29 only, this lively conversation includes panelists such as Jim Simons, as well as Barkin/Selissen Project Artistic Directors Aaron Selissen and Kyla Barkin.
Differential Cohomology; Dance of the Diagram brings math to life as dancers contract, expand and redraw concepts with their bodies and on the stage following algebraic principles. In manifesting mathematical theory in movement and form, dance
rs bring the subject to a new horizon, for the mathematically inclined and challenged alike.
Set to music from Sirius String Quartet, dancers for this performance include Kara Chan, Fumihiro Kikuchi, Sumire Ishige, Lindsay Harwell, Michael Bishop, Amanda Sommers, Mark Willis, Brianna Rivera, Kisara Nonaka, Julia Discenza, Ellie Swainhart, Molly Gray.
Differential Cohomology; Dance of the Diagram was originally commissioned for the opening of the Sim
ons Center for Geometry and Physics at Stony Brook University. Simons’ research and published papers mark him as one of the primary names in the field of cohomology and his inspiration and support acted as the catalyst for the creation of this dance.

at The Gerald W. Lynch Theater, John Jay College
The CUNY Dance Initiative and the Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College announce a performance by Jon Lehrer Dance Company featuring the world premiere of Through The
Storm, a full company work set to an original score by composer Zeno Pittarelli. The program will include additional works, including four New York City premieres.

Tickets are $35 and are available at www.jonlehrerdance.com.
Jon Lehrer Dance Company (JLDC)’s trademark artistic, athletic, and accessible style is known for striking the elusive balance between art and entertainment. Taking the energy and chaos of a storm as inspiration, Through The Storm represents the past two years of struggle, hardship, but most of all the creativity and perseverance artists held on to throughout the pandemic. Visually stunning, evocative, and physically impressive, Through The Storm will be performed both internationally and nationally as part of JLDC’s 22/23 season following the premiere. The program also highlights the range of JLDC’s repertory with four New York City premieres (full details below).
JLDC is freshly off a successful four-week European tour where the company “captivated the audience with its grandiose choreography and the ensemble’s top dance performance without fail. Dynamism, elegance, acrobatics, power and an absolute passion for dance – these are the attributes that could be used to describe the performance.” (Zollern-Alb Kurier – Balingen, Germany)

Maria Callas: the 100th birth Anniversary - LA VESTALE
2023-10-28 18:30 - 21:00 | Gerald W. Lynch Theater, 524 West 59th Street, New York, NY, 10019, United States
Saturday, October 28th, 2023 – 6:30pm EST

At Teatro Grattacielo, we are driven by a fundamental mission: to promote and preserve the performances of rare operatic masterpieces. This season, we are thrilled to align ourselves with the global celebration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the legendary soprano, Maria Callas. These momentous celebrations are graciously supported by UNESCO.
We invite you to embark on a journey into history as we revive the remarkable opera, La Vestale, composed by Gaspare Spontini. This particular opera holds special significance in Callas’ career, as she mesmerized audiences during its performance on Teatro Alla Scala’s opening night in 1954, brilliantly directed by the renowned Italian film director Luchino Visconti, has only graced the stage of the Metropolitan Opera once, way back in 1926.
Now, almost a century later, Teatro Grattacielo proudly brings the historic 1954 version of La Vestale back to the vibrant city of New York.

Angel of Many Signs

The New York Choral Society presents Angel of Many Signs, an immersive production of choral music featuring the New York premiere of Angel of Light a new Shaker-inspired cantata by Kevin Siegfried and contemporary arrangements of the music of Hildegard of Bingen.
Chantal Freeman, Bergamot Quartet, Saya Woolfalk and Raquel Acevedo Klein join The New York Choral Society.

Raquel Acevedo Klein and Bergamot Quartet create an improvised electronic sound environment that responds to and enhances the unique timbre of each Hildegard of Bingen composition sung by our chorus and Chantal Freeman. Electronic looping will expand the experience of our sound environment as Saya Woolfalk’s unfolding narrative of images and video create an immersive visual environment that mirrors the ethereal spaciousness of the music.
Angel of Many Signs, with voices, string quartet, electronica, and projections, bridges the music of a 12th century abbess and Shaker women of the mid-19th to explore the roles of women as polymaths, visionaries, and prophets in music and art.

Our production takes its inspiration from a Shaker gift drawing A Sacred Sheet Sent from Holy Mother Wisdom by Her Angel of Many Signs. According to Shaker tradition, heavenly spirits came to earth, bringing visions, often giving them to young Shaker women, who danced, whirled, spoke in tongues, and interpreted these visions through their drawings and dancing.

From as a far back as Pythia at Delphi, who served as the mouthpiece of the god Apollo, women have often served, although not always celebrated, as messengers of the divine. Despite being separated by many centuries, Hildegard of Bingen and the Shaker women of Watervliet were fascinating polymaths who brought a uniquely feminine perspective to their ecstatic visions of the divine that that ranged from music and movement to devotional manuscripts and drawings.
