Hourglass


A World Premiere by Ne. Sans Opera & Dance

A dance performance and concert creation set to the complete Piano Etudes of the celebrated Jewish composer Philip Glass, one of the most innovative and influential composers of the late 20th century, and choreographed by Israeli director Idan Cohen. This series of miniature Etudes comprises 20 spectacular gems hidden within Glass’ body of work, performed live by award-winning pianist Leslie Dala.

Hourglass explores the passage of time with an ensemble of dancers of ages ranging from their 20s to late 60s, with a variety of body types and backgrounds. They represent a wealth of knowledge that needs to be seen, both as a response to current times, and as a compelling elucidation of Glass’ intent.

The audience is invited following the performances to the Sidney & Gertrude Zack Gallery for a facilitated Talkback and casual reception with the artists.
