In celebration of its 15th anniversary, YaoYong Dance presents a tapestry of original Chinese dances by Artistic Director, Yong Yao.
Reflecting on the past and fueling the present with passion, Yao’s artistic works encompass breadth and depth of Chinese dances that relive history, praise the wonder of nature, and just tell you a story from a gentle soul.
Program:
- Reflection – A collection of Yao’s favorite works from the past fifteen years.
- Spring Awakening, a trilogy – World premiere at this performance.
- Yellow River Suite – Yellow River is the origin of Chinese culture and civilization, and her magnificent presence represents the resilient and courageous nature of the Chinese people. Building upon the powerful and eloquent piano concerto, The Yellow River, Yao choreographed a strikingly moving dance ensemble, which depicted history, the great mother nature, and the people who lived by this big river. Yellow River Suite dance ensemble was voted one of “20th Century Masterpieces by Chinese Dancers” in China.
