This Is Another (2016)

Choreography: Rebecca Lazier in Collaboration with Performers
Music: Collaboration with Dan Trueman
Performers: Students of Princeton University Program in Dance

Princeton University students perform This Is Another, a unique, condensed version of a new work, There Might Be Others, by faculty member Rebecca Lazier in collaboration with composer Dan Trueman, percussion ensembles So Percusion and Mobius Percussion and the performers. The work was inspired by Terry Riley’s In C and builds on the tradition of open scores, where performers compose in real-time based on a predetermined array of content to stage negotiation. Lazier developed the score during residencies in Poland, Turkey, Canada, and New York. A company of professional dancers premiered the full work at New York Live Arts in March 2017. Throughout the rehearsal process Princeton students had the opportunity to rehearse with the professional dancers on campus and in New York City.
