    Join Alonzo King LINES Ballet in Lyon, France performing at Maison de la Danse. Grounded on more than 40 years of thought-provoking dance, master choreographer Alonzo King’s unique artistic vision honors and advances the classical form—the linear, mathematical, and geometrical principles deeply rooted in the East-West continuum. Witness King’s creativity in his sought-after work, Deep River, a collaboration created with MacArthur Fellow composer Jason Moran and Grammy Award-winning vocalist Lisa Fischer.



    Deep River is a call to keep hope, to make the lotus bloom in the mud, and to look at each other as a family of souls. Created over three years and throughout the pandemic, Deep River is a piece written with the heart, a love letter to a world writhing in pain, served by exceptional dancers.

    Echirolles, France | November 20-21 | ON TOUR

    Join Alonzo King LINES Ballet on tour in Echirolles, France performing King’s Common Ground and Handel at La Rampe.

    Common Ground
    With Common Ground, Alonzo King joined the famous Kronos Quartet to create an ode to the city of San Francisco. Two of the most influential cultural ambassadors of this artistic capital, King and Kronos created a visionary collaboration. The musicians explored the string quartet in a permanent conversation with the dancers. Together they invented before our eyes the vocabulary of a new classical dance… one of fluidity, technicality and grace. Experience King and Kronos Quartet’s masterpiece on tour with stunning recorded music and live dance.

    Handel
    In 1741, Händel said of his last composition: “Whether I was in my body or outside of it when I wrote it, I do not know …”. By exploring his work in Handel, Alonzo King is in turn touched by grace: a messenger of the celestial harmony of bodies, he restores the dramatic elegance of baroque expression in an evocative choreography that resonates deeply with the nobility of the music. The pure lines of the dancers miraculously reflect Händel’s vision of a new balance between thematic richness and simplicity.

  • Alonzo King LINES Ballet | World Premiere at Grace Cathedral

    ALONZO KING LINES BALLET

    WORLD PREMIERE AT GRACE CATHEDRAL 

     FEB 7-8, 2020

    TICKETS

    Join us on February 7 or 8, 2020 for a world-premiere performance by internationally-celebrated choreographer Alonzo King and his stunning contemporary ballet company, LINES Ballet. Grace Cathedral’s 2019 Artist in Residence, King will continue the cathedral’s year-long exploration of “The Year of the Body” in this culminating event of his residency.

    Presented for two nights only, the site-specific ballet draws inspiration from diverse sacred music traditions and investigates the relationship between our spiritual and physical selves. With limited seating for each performance, this is a rare opportunity to experience King’s extraordinary dancers and thought-provoking choreography in an intimate and unique setting. The ballet has been choreographed specifically for the cathedral and will unfold in the spacious nave framed bythe cathedral’s stunning stained glass windows.

    “In his dual role of choreographer and teacher, Alonzo King is training the heart and the mind as well as the body.” – New York Times, 2018

    “When Alonzo says, ‘my real work is the transformation of the self,’ he says this as a dance teacher in the deepest sense of the word. Dance helps us to pay attention to that transformation. It is one way our body becomes an instrument for discerning the truth.” – The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral

    ALONZO KING

    GRACE CATHEDRAL’S ARTIST IN RESIDENCE

     

    Alonzo King LINES Ballet and Grace Cathedral are pleased to announce Alonzo King as Grace Cathedral’s Artist in Residence.

    Grace Cathedral celebrates 2019 with the theme “Year of the Body.” During the year, the cathedral community will consider a number of issues around the human body including: the imperative for all human bodies to be treated with respect, the wonder of our corporeal selves, and the spiritual elements of dance.  As Grace Cathedral’s Artist in Residence, King will create a new work responding to the cathedral’s theme that will be performed at Grace in February 2020. He will speak at the cathedral’s conversation series, The Forum. Alonzo King LINES Ballet will hold workshops to engage the cathedral’s many constituencies, including congregants, the yoga community, the Cathedral School for Boys, and The Community Preschool.

    “I am incredibly honored to be the 2019 Artist in Residence at Grace Cathedral,” said King. “Grace is an organization known for its endless commitment to art and service; embracing the San Francisco community and the world. We have some wonderful projects planned.”

    The dean of the cathedral, the Reverend Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, said, “We have an Artist in Residence program because we believe in the power of art to inspire people and we want to make art accessible to everyone.” Young noted, “We have had poets, painters, performance artists and other people as our Artist in Residence. It is exciting this year to welcome our first choreographer as we explore the body as our annual theme.”
