Partita embodies the voices of Caroline Shaw's Pulitzer Prize-winning a capella composition as eight dancers in sneakers oscillate between solo and unison movements, taking inspiration from the striking set design by Eva LeWitt.

Justin Peck’s Partita for eight dancers is set to Caroline Shaw’s Partita for 8 Voices. The piece, Peck’s 22nd for NYCB, features a set designed by New York-based visual artist Eva LeWitt, the daughter of artist Sol LeWitt, whose Wall Drawing 305 inspired Shaw’s Pulitzer Prize-winning composition. Frequent Peck collaborators Reid Bartelme and Harriet Jung, and Brandon Stirling Baker, designed the costumes and lighting respectively.
