(Boston, MA) – Experience the power, energy and joy that is COLLAGE. Boston's award-winning
fusion dance company performs its signature high-energy mix of traditional dance forms reinterpreted
through contemporary choreography. Collage’s spring concert features the debut of “Moments”,
which showcases the drama and sensuality of Latin American dancing.
Collage’s pieces will be complemented by the music of the world renown composer and musician
Hasan Isakkut. His ensemble is one of the finest contemporary Turkish bands in the country.
“I’ve wanted Collage to do a piece like Moments for a long time” says choreographer Ahmet Lüleci. “This year was the opportunity
for Collage to do something new, and focus on dances from Latin America. What makes this show even more exciting is that Collage
will share the stage with one of my favorite musicians, Hasan Isakkut, an emotional composer whose songs have been played in
30 different countries. He will be accompanied by some spectacular musicians.”
