In celebrating the upcoming 50th anniversary of The New York Baroque Dance Company, solo dancers Julia Bengtsson and Caroline Copeland will perform “Les Caractères de la danse” with music by Jean Fery Rebel and a suite of dances from Handel’s Terpsichore. Both of these works were choreographed by the award-winning artist Catherine Turocy and represent the theatrical performance style.
The New York Baroque Dance Company, founded in 1976 by Catherine Turocy and Ann Jacoby, leads the field of Baroque dance performance, appearing across the country and in Europe, Mexico, Canada and Japan. On the cutting edge of historical performance, NYBDC also mentors dancers in research and the Baroque style. World-renowned artists Caroline Copeland and Julia Bengtsson are among the most gifted dancers in the field.
