Wally Cardona Quartet: Him, There, Them

Wally Cardona considers Him, There, Them, a solo, quartet and duet, somewhat of a culmination of his recent works. Comprised of movement that is at times lush, treacherous, romantic, athletic, intimate, cool, dramatic, the dance first takes place on an elegant white set in front of a line of high school snare drummers. In the second section, artificial grass becomes a subtle musical instrument for the dancers’ feet, complemented by deconstructed Brahams piano music played live by Koji Attwood. The final part, set on strips of white Marley that curve upward, is accompanied by a mix of electronic and piano music.
