About
Choreographer Alonzo King and LINES Ballet’s regular collaborations with the San Francisco Symphony feel both like a homecoming and an evolution of a shared artistic language. In reimagining the expansive Americana of Copland’s Appalachian Spring and the evocative, impressionistic textures of Debussy’s Prelude to The Afternoon of a Faun, King and LINES Ballet invite us to explore how movement and sound breathe together in real time. Conductor James Gaffigan and SF Symphony Principal Cello Rainer Eudeikis expand the palette with Prokofiev’s sardonic and spectacular Sinfonia concertante. This cello concerto in all but name boasts one of the most demanding roles in the repertoire. The cello doles out every frequency in its range, from throbbing low notes to piercing cries.
