    Alonzo King LINES Ballet presents an extraordinary new collaboration between three celebrated artists - choreographer Alonzo King, architect Christopher Haas, and percussionist Mickey Hart Alonzo King LINES Ballet Spring Season April 15-24, 2011 Novellus Theater at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts 700 Howard Street, San Francisco www.linesballet.org Michael Montgomery and Keelan Whitmore featured with one of Christopher Haas’ original sets, photo by RJ Muna SAN FRANCISCO, CA—February xx, 2011—Alonzo King LINES Ballet is pleased to present a groundbreaking new collaboration bringing together a trio of celebrated artists: choreographer Alonzo King, architect Christopher Haas, and percussionist Mickey Hart. This new work will have its world premiere during Alonzo King LINES Ballet’s 2011 Spring Home season, at the Novellus Theater at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, April 15-24, 2011. King, Haas and Hart join together to create a new piece that explores our relationship with space – physical space and infinite space. The original soundscore by the Grammy-award winning Hart, is based on his recent collaborations with Nobel Laureate George Smoot, draws on the harmonics of the cosmos itself, gathering light waves from the vibrations of heavenly bodies and converting them into layers of sound. Architect Haas, formerly a collaborator with world-renown Swiss architects Herzog &de Meuron, and one of the lead architects of San Francisco’s MH deYoung Museum, has created an interactive built environment, partnering the dancers with transformable architectural surroundings crafted from inexpensive, ordinarily overlooked materials such as recycled cardboard and elastic chord, his sets strike an intriguing kinetic balance between linear and organic forms, and the extraordinary dancers of Alonzo King LINES Ballet grace the stage with incomparable physical artistry.

  • ICICI Bank Organizes 'Spandan'- a Fusion Music Night
    ICICI Bank Limited ICICI Towers Bandra Kurla Complex IIICC Bank Mumbai 400 051 Press Note August 3,2002 ICICI Bank organizes ‘Spandan’- a fusion music night. Exclusive music evening for its corporate clients ICICI Bank, India’s largest private sector bank, today organised ‘Spandan’, an exclusive evening of fusion music for its corporate clients in Mumbai. ‘Spandan’, which means Heartbeat in Sanskrit, was a melange of five different musical performances by well known artistes like Shankar Mahadevan as the vocalist, Anandan Sivamani on the drum, Niladri Kumar playing the sitar; Vikku Vinayakram on the Ghatam; V.Selvaganesh on the Kanjira; Fazal Qureshi on the Tabla and Bhawani Shankar on the Pakhawaj and Tabla. Together they promise to blend the world of music with the pulse beats of every individual present there. The programme started with the invocation prayer followed by an enticing Madhalaya performance. The tempo of the music slowly increased to a breathtaking percussion item followed by a Jam session. The highlight of the concert was the grand finale, a symphony of sound that left audience asking for more. The programme, organized in Mumbai, attracted a wide audience of industrialists and top executives of the corporate world and noted celebrities including Javed Akhtar, Bhupendra and Mitali, Roopkumar and Sonali Rathod, Raageshwari, and Dipti Naval. Said Mr. Nachiket Mor, Executive Director, ICICI Bank, “It was a pleasure to see so many of our clients enjoying the performance and having a relaxed time this evening. We are delighted to meet them outside the work purview and share some lighter moments together."
