Aspen Sante Fe Ballet Opens with international focus

What do a Brazilian, a Fin, two Spaniards, a Frenchman and an Israeli-American have in common?

 

They are all choreographers who influenced the performances that will be seen on the Aspen stage this summer.

Jessica Moore, marketing manager of the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet says that the choreographers are a very large part of bringing that global feel to the company.

“We are sort of encapsulating what’s happening in dance around the world right now in our season.”

 

The Aspen Santa Fe ballet will also feature companies from Brazil, Montreal and a group from Santa Fe that specializes in flamenco, Juan Siddi Flemenco Santa Fe.

 

DanceBrazil goes on at eight tonight at the Aspen District Theatre. The Aspen Santa Fe Ballet company debuts next week with a program choreographed by Alejandro Cerrudo, Cayetano Soto and Jorma Elo.
