New Dialect | Souvenirs

OZ Arts presents the world premiere of New Dialect’s “Souvenirs.” Since their premiere performance within OZ Arts’ TNT series in 2014, New Dialect has attained an internationally-respected status for contemporary dance makers. Led by artistic director and Nashville native, Banning Bouldin, New Dialect returns to OZ Arts with fresh works and compelling collaborations. Featuring an original commission and live musical performance by acclaimed Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson and composer/fadolin virtuoso Lev LJOVA Zhurbin, New Dialect premieres a new dance work for ensemble. Partnering with renowned guest choreographer Peter Chu, Bouldin then takes the stage with revered, Romaniain-born dancer Ana Maria Lucaciu in a duet made for the strikingly similar pair.
