Enjoy five weeks of innovative dance as the 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Festival returns to the spacious Ailey® Citigroup Theater at The Joan Weill Center for Dance on West 55th Street at Ninth Avenue. Inspired by the rhythmic text of French-Canadian poet Gaston Miron, [ZØGMA] presents its new creation, Rapaillé. The percussive phrasing of gigue, fused with a contemporary fluidity, results in a work that is rhythmical, powerful and tinged with urban poetry. Accompanied by live musicians under the direction of renowned composer Julien Roy, the performers of Rapaillé redefine percussive dance. Watch video of Rapaillé on the 92Y Blog.
