The Joyce Theater
March 20 - 25
For the fourth season of Bloodlines,the Company will present the world premiere of Petronio’s Hardness 10, the third collaboration between Petronio and composer Nico Muhly. "Petronio’s departure point for Hardness 10 is the nature of the diamond—a dense stone, forged under pressure into an object of brilliance and clarity. Muhly’s score was originally created in response to the “fractal images and gestures” of the Wilton Diptych, a medieval painting, circa 1393, by an unknown English or French painter. Both the dance work and the score explore “multifacetedness,” tracking a progression of roughness to preciousness, simplicity to complexity," notes the release. Also on the program is Merce Cunningham's Signals (1970) and Petronio’s Underland (2003) titled Wild Wild World. Underland was originally created for the Sydney Dance Company in 2003 and was inspired by the music of post-punk, Australian singer-songwriter Nick Cave. Find out more here
