York's Harlem Renaissance, to the Bebop era of the 1950’s.
Call-and-response pattern, collaboration, improvisation
and syncopation are described through narratives and
danced to the music of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Charlie Parker and Miles Davis. Morning Young Dancers workshop participants
partner with company dancers for three segments.
A great opportunity for young dancers to have a workshop
