Paul Taylor molded the dance company that bears his name into one of the preeminent performing ensembles in the world, leading it until his death in 2018.
In this program, the company premieres a Northrop Centennial Commission by Peter Chu, paired with two classic Taylor works, the sublime masterpiece, Airs—hailed as “a treasure” by The New York Times—and Promethean Fire, set to three keyboard works by Bach richly orchestrated by Stokowski.
