About Reminiscin'

Description

Artistic Director Emerita Judith Jamison presents a work inspired by a host of great female jazz artists and by Edward Hopper's famous painting Nighthawks. Jamison's acclaimed 2004 Love Stories was hailed by The New York Times as a "larger-than-life piece d'occasion" that is "astoundingly well danced." This new work sets the choreographer's distinctive vocabulary to music performed by Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Roberta Flack, Regina Carter and Diana Krall.
