Doug Varone and Dancers
Set to a suite of exquisite operatic arias by Georg Fredric Handel, To My Arms (Part 1) builds a rich and distinct landscape of love and loss within a suite of ten dances, evoking a strange otherworld of intimacy. In stark contrast, Restore (Part 2) is visceral and tactile, driven by the 21th century sound of DJ Nico Bentley’s Handel Remix, a score that fuses the fundamentals of Handel’s 18th century choral score Dixit Dominus with beats more commonly heard in clubs around the globe; the result is a marriage between a score and a dance that is unabashedly glorious.
For more than 30 years, Doug Varone and Dancers has devoted itself to the humanity and virtuosity of dance, earning a reputation as one of the most respected dance companies working today. Award-winning choreographer and director, Doug Varone works in dance, theater, opera, film, and fashion. He is a passionate educator and articulate advocate for dance. Varone received his BFA from Purchase College where he was awarded the President’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 2007.
