"To My Arms /Restore" is a two-part work embodying Doug Varone’s decades’ long choreographic fascination between the deeply emotional and the immensely physical. Set to a suite of arias by George F. Handel, "To My Arms" builds a landscape of love and loss, evoking a strange otherworld of intimacy. In stark contrast, Restore feels as if it has been ripped out of today’s front pages, and brings a message of community, defiance, resilience in the face of ever-present danger, reflecting our world’s recoiling and rebounding. Driven by the 21st-century sound of Festival Voices and Nico Bentley’s "Handel Remixed", the score fuses Handel’s 18th-century choral score "Dixit Dominus" with beats more commonly heard in clubs around the globe. Accompanied by live music by the 100-member MasterVoices and the New York Baroque Incorporated (NYBI), the entire evening will be conducted by orchestrator and Tony Award-winner Ted Sperling.
