Pascal Rioult returns to Cal Performances with a thrilling program devoted to the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. RIOULT Dance NY performs the French-born choreographer's muscularly elegant, deeply emotive works, celebrated for carrying on the legacies of his early mentors, Martha Graham and May O'Donnell. "Rioult's responses to Bach are keenly sensitive to phrasing and structure...buoyant, shapely, and often intricate in design, reflecting Bach's contrapuntal mastery" (The Plain Dealer, Cleveland).

City (music: Bach, Violin Sonata in G Major, BWV 1019)
Celestial Tides (music: Bach, Brandenburg Concerto No. 6 in B-flat Major)
