Autumn Winter

World Premiere

Choreographer: Mario Alberto Zambrano

Text: Autumn by Ali Smith, Anchor Books, 2016

Music: Johann Sebastian Bach, Cello suite No. 4 in E-flat major, Sarabande

Inspired by a chapter from Ali Smith’s novel “Autumn,” her first installment in a quartet series, ‘Autumn Winter’ is a juxtaposition of recited text and embodied responses to observations and reflections from a modern day political climate. A world premiere, this collaboration with Mario Alberto Zambrano was choreographed remotely during the month of January. Special thanks to Risa D’Souza and Dwain Travis for being so generous and adaptable throughout this Zoom experience. So timely the text, so visceral their interpretations.
