Raj Bhimani continues his presentation of piano works by Germaine Tailleferre at the Library for the Performing Arts. This installment features a composition, dances from “Marin du Bolivar,” that is preserved by the Library that Tailleferre wrote while in New York. Previously unpublished works by the composer will surround this pair of dances from her comic opera. Works by Mozart and Brahms will also be performed during the second half of the program. Germaine Tailleferre was a French composer and the only female member of the group of composers known as Les Six. She lived a long life and was prolific as a composer,but much of her later music remains unknown, unpublished, rarely performed, and underappreciated. The French music publisher Editions de la Musique Fabrique has started issuing many previously unpublished Tailleferre scores. Photo Description: Raj Bhimani seated at the piano.

The Zodiac Trio celebrates the rich tapestry of human expression through two fundamental forms of music: songs and dances. At its heart, this program pays homage to the timeless allure of these two primal forms of musical expression by compiling works inspired by songs and dances. From George Gershwin's iconic Porgy and Bess to the spirited music of the late Peter Schickele, each piece is inspired by one of these basic expressions. Among the highlights of the program is Bela Bartok's legendary Contrasts, a masterpiece brimming with virtuosity and infused with the unmistakable rhythms of Hungarian folklore. Adding a twist to the classical repertoire, Songs and Dances features a special tribute to the king of swing, Benny Goodman. Through virtuosic arrangements of tunes popularized by the Goodman band, audiences are treated to a lively homage to one of the most influential figures in jazz history. With its diverse selection of works, Zodiac Trio invites listeners to experience music in its purest forms, celebrating the timeless connection between melody, rhythm, and the human spirit.

Choreographer, educator, and curator Sekou McMiller, one of today’s most influential Afro Latin dance artists, takes a look at the Palladium Ballroom and its impact on the creation and proliferation of the Afro Latin dance the “Mambo” aka “Salsa on2.” Joined by elders from the Palladium Era, he revisits the famed ballroom which opened 1946–1966, known for its dancers as well as its music, fueled by weekly dance competitions and band battles. It was New York’s first integrated music and dance space in Midtown, and was the catalyst for a worldwide Afro Latin dance phenomenon. For more than 10 years, The Dance Historian Is In at the Library for the Performing Arts has highlighted a diverse range of dancers and choreographers across history. This series began when archivist and historian David Vaughan started volunteering at the Jerome Robbins Dance Division. Vaughan began a monthly program showing his favorite dance films from the Division's extensive collection, through which he unearthed many treasures, and helped acquire even more. Vaughan continued the series until the end of his life. Today, we honor his memory and work by inviting dance historians from all over the world each month to carry on the tradition of highlighting dance history through the Dance Division's moving image collection.
