Rivers & Moons

Claude Debussy’s jaunty tarantelle frolics at the confluence of two Austrian rivers. A world premiere by Niloufar Nourbakhsh paints a musical autobiography of the earth, as told through the rocks upon which we dance. Louis Ballard’s ballet celebrates four legendary Oklahoma ballerinas of Indigenous North American descent.

• Claude Debussy (orch. Ravel): Danse (Tarantelle styrienne)
• Niloufar Nourbakhsh: World Premiere, title TBD
