BE IN THE ROOM!

NOTHING REPLACES THE LIVE EXPERIENCE!

That visceral connection, the shared group energy we get from a live performance is very special and cannot be replicated on a digital screen. Be In The Room, and be a part of that powerful personal connection with art.

Creating moments of awe, like tonight’s performance, is what makes the TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND season so very special. It’s hard to put into words, but it’s something you just have to experience in the room, with an audience. Diverse, global, entertaining, all describe the magic of TITAS. Nothing Replaces the Live Experience.

We celebrate and contribute to the international profile of our city. We celebrate the value of serving an adventurous and eager audience, and we celebrate the value of cultural awareness and the enrichment of a community. This is the heart of TITAS and our contribution to the cultural landscape of North Texas. New audience members are always surprised by their experience. “I’m overwhelmed, this was not what I expected,” this is the comment we hear at virtually every performance. With four decades under our belt, we see the power of bringing top-notch artists from around the world to our city.

The 2024:25 season won’t disappoint. Breathtaking artistry, athletic and amazing dancers makes this a very special season of internationally touring companies. We proudly present a season of ten extraordinary companies from the United States, New Zealand and Spain, with four companies making their debuts and three companies performing with live music.

Thank you for being a part of another exciting year of performances, and thank you for engaging in the arts and with TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND and the AT&T Performing Arts Center.

What we do together, truly does make a difference.

COMPOSER PROFILE

ALICE COLTRANE

Alice Coltrane’s pioneering and trailblazing career has changed the course of history. She forged masterful creative works, created music that beams universal love and spirituality to anyone that is listening, and laid the groundwork for musicians for years to come to do the same. She was prolific in her creation, with iconic works that include Journey In Satchidananda (one of Rolling Stone’s 500 greatest albums), A Monastic Trio, Universal Consciousness, Ptah, the El Daoud, and continued creating music when she started her ashram in California—music from that time would later be released to critical acclaim. Beyond her recorded output (elegantly explored in The New York Times’ Five Minutes That Will Make You Love Alice Coltrane), Coltrane was a beloved and wise spiritual leader, a pragmatic person with a keen eye for business, and a deeply giving human, who emphasized the importance of charitable giving, education, and spiritual guidance.

In an extraordinary collaboration, Alonzo King LINES Ballet partners with The John & Alice Coltrane Home and the Coltrane Family to celebrate the life and work of the legendary spiritual leader, composer, pianist, and harpist Alice Coltrane, an artist celebrated for her pioneering and trailblazing career. As part of “The Year of Alice,” LINES Ballet premieres a new work set to her transformative music. This premiere is part of a series of nationwide tributes honoring Alice Coltrane’s extraordinary legacy. LINES Ballet is joining organizations including Impulse! Records, the Detroit Jazz Festival, the Hammer Museum, and The New York Historical Society to honor Alice Coltrane through performances and exhibitions.

Alonzo King choreographed his very first work to the music of Alice Coltrane, which premiered at the company’s inaugural performance in 1982 at the McKenna Theater, San Francisco State University. King continues to draw inspiration from her groundbreaking contributions. “I’ve been mesmerized by the transcendental music of the incredible Alice Coltrane since I was a child,” says King.

Jazz saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, Alice’s son, reflects on her enduring impact: “Alice was ahead of her time, one of the first people to move outside the mainstream, and certainly one of the first female, Black, American jazz musicians to record her own music in her own studio, and to release music on her own terms…people across all generations are finding their way to Alice’s music in a myriad of different ways. It’s hard to pinpoint what makes her music so powerful, but there’s something in her spirit, in her intention, that is very clear—and people can feel that immediately.”

COMPOSER PROFILE

MAURICE RAVEL

“One of the most sophisticated musicians of the early 20th century, Maurice Ravel was born on March 7, 1875, in Ciboure, France Showing great musical promise as a child, he began his piano studies at the Paris Conservatoire when he was just 14 years old. Ravel remained a Conservatoire student off and on for 14 years, adding composition classes with the renowned Gabriel Fauré.

Ravel enthusiastically sought out experiences with a wide range of music, attending performances, for example, at the 1889 Paris Exhibition, where he heard a Javanese gamelan, Russian music by Rimsky-Korsakov, and more. He also joined Les Apaches, a group of literary, musical, and artistic contemporaries which openly shared and discussed a range of cultural topics and trends” (sourced from chambermusicsociety.org). “Ravel’s early masterpiece, Pavane for a Dead Princess (1902) was performed by this group.

Although Ravel never had any children of his own, he loved children, and he composed the Mother Goose Suite for two pianos between 1908–1910. People liked it so much that he later orchestrated it and presented it as a ballet. Ravel is remembered most for Boléro, an orchestral work that he wrote for a famous Russian dancer named Ida Rubenstein. In this masterpiece, it’s easy to hear how Ravel was inspired by the Spanish songs that his mother used to sing to him” (sourced from dallassymphony.org).
