Lisa Leizman Dance Company Warms Up Winter
Northampton,
MA—The Northampton Center for the Arts presents the Lisa Leizman Dance Company
as they celebrate the beginning of their 24th season on Saturday,
January 31 at 7:30 pm. The performance, “an evening of warmth of light,” takes
place on the main level of the Arts Trust Building at 33 Hawley Street in
Northampton.
A
resident company of the Center for the Arts, the group has chosen a program
featuring “When There is a Mountain”, a new work set to music by company
composer-in-residence Andrea Kwapien. Inspired by her travels to Southeast
Asia, Kwapien’s score shimmers with the sounds of bells, bowls and flute. The
concert also includes audience favorites “Pur ti miro” with music by Benedetto
di Ferrari, as well as Unsquare Dance
with music by Dave Brubeck.
In
keeping with tradition and the spirit of the season, the performance is
followed by a festive reception featuring home cooking by members of the
company.
Tickets
are $10 for adults and $5 for children under 10 and are sold exclusively at the
door, payable by cash or check. Doors
open at 7 pm for general seating. Parking is free in the lot adjacent to the
building.
