Originally choreographed in 1999 for Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, in this work Ronald K. Brown pays tribute to Judith Jamison’s profound influence. The name of the work echoes the title of Jamison’s autobiography.
Set to music by Duke Ellington, Wynton Marsalis and War, Brown’s evocative choreography uses movement from Cuba, Brazil and the United States to conjure dancing spirits who embody Jamison’s elegance, vision, dignity and generosity.
