Queens New Music Festival: Periapsis Music and Dance
Founded in 2012 by composer-pianist Jonathan Howard Katz and dancer-choreographer Leigh Schanfein, Periapsis Music and Dance will present the second program of its inaugural season as part of the Queens New Music Festival. Periapsis Music and Dance was founded in response to the growing gap between dance and live musical performance in the New York City arts scene and exists to give composers and dance artists the opportunity to collaborate on new work.
The program features six new works of music and choreography by the founders and guest artists:
