Choreographer(s)
About
This complex, multi-layered ballet, set to the music of Kimati Dinizulu and Monti Ellison, was choreographed by Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Artistic Director Emerita Judith Jamison in 1984. This work was Ms. Jamison's first choreographic effort and a smashing success, winning reviews that ranked her a promising new choreographer. Divining, a unique combination of primitive tribal energy and urban sophistication, creatively displays the company's versatility.
