DESCRIPTION:<h4 class="text-blue">GERALD R. FORD AMPHITHEATER</h4> Celebrating its 75th anniversary season, the Limón Dance Company makes its Festival debut this summer. A titan of American modern dance since its founding in 1946, the company is acclaimed for its dramatic expression, technical mastery, and expansive, yet nuanced movement. Repertory will include Limón’s <em>Psalm</em>, Doris Humphrey’s <em>Air for the G String</em>, and Limón’s legendary solo <em>Chaconne</em> which will be danced by New York City Ballet soloist, and 2022 Festival Artist-In-Residence, Roman Mejia, joined by acclaimed violinist Johnny Gandelsman. <i>Generously Underwritten by Priscilla Brewster.</i> <h5>PROGRAM:</h5> <strong><i>The Waldstein Sonata</i> </strong> <span data-contrast="auto">Music: </span><span data-contrast="auto">Ludwig Van Beethoven, Piano Sonata no 21 in C Major, Opus 53 (1803-1804)</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span> <span data-contrast="auto">Choreography: </span><span data-contrast="none">José Limón, Daniel Lewis</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span> <span data-contrast="auto">Dancers: [</span><span data-contrast="none">Limón Dance</span><span data-contrast="auto"> Company] </span><span data-contrast="auto">Joey Colmbus, MJ Edwards, Mariah Gravelin, Deepa Liegel, Nicholas Ruscica, Frances Lorraine Samson, Jessica Sgambelluri, Robert M Valdez, Jr.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span> Pianist: <span data-contrast="none">Cameron Grant</span> <strong><i>Chaconne</i> </strong> <span data-contrast="auto">Music: </span><span data-contrast="auto">J.S.
