Faculty Highlight

Each year the Program in Dance presents a work performed by all the seniors together. This year, the students will perform “This Is Another,” a unique, condensed version of a new work (There Might Be Others) by faculty member Rebecca Lazier. The work is inspired by Terry Riley’s In C and builds on the tradition of open scores, where performers compose in real-time based on a predetermined array of content to stage negotiation. Lazier developed the score during residencies in Poland, Turkey, Canada, and New York. A company of professional dancers will premiere the full work at New York Live Arts March 16 through 19. Throughout the rehearsal process Princeton students have had the opportunity to rehearse with the professional dancers on campus and in New York City.
