He has continued to win acclaim for his recent creations as well as stagings of his earlier works. As prolific as ever, he may propel his dancers through space for the sheer beauty of it, or use them to wordlessly illuminate war, spirituality, sexuality, morality and mortality. This program was recorded in 2012 at the Théâtre National de Chaillot in Paris and is composed of two ballets. BRANDENBURGS First performed in 1988 to music from Bach’s Brandenburg concertos #3 and #6. “Brandenburgs” is cast for a man and three women, plus an ensemble of five men. In an unusual stroke for Taylor, he uses the male quintet as a proper corps de ballet – that is, they frame the action and move only as a group, anonymously. The sharp hierarchical distinction between soloists and ensemble accounts for one aspect of the dance’s classical feel. More important, though, is the ensemble’s attitude toward the soloists.

It depicts the experiences of an artist described in a line from Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass”: “I am the poet of the body and I am the poet of the soul.” BELOVED RENEGADE - opus 129 (2008) Choreography : PAUL TAYLOR Music : FRANCIS POULENC Costume Design : SANTO LOQUASTO Lighting Design : JENNIFER TIPTON
