On opening night we are featuring our opening number by faculty member Christopher Compton (@christopherbcompton)! Telemann Viola Concerto was originally created as a part of Perry-Mansfield’s 2020 Concert Series in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It has been reimagined for the UArizona School of Dance’s Fall for Dance. A neoclassical tribute to the elegant ballets of yesteryear, Telemann Viola Concerto is a celebration of life, of music, and of course, dance. A reminder that, even in tumultuous times, there is still beauty to be found. #uazdance #fallfordance #arizonaarts
