LINES Ballet
in collaboration with jazz legend
Pharoah Sanders
World Premiere
October 17 - 26, 2008
Pharoah Sanders, the famed tenor saxophonist who played with John Coltrane's jazz ensemble in the 1960s, shares Alonzo King's philosophy that art can express a truth: something underneath the surface, something deeply held in the soul. "The spirit tells me what to do and that's it," Sanders says of creating music for LINES Ballet. For Alonzo King, "Dancers are musicians, and musicians are dancers - they're making music with their bodies."
