Set to Ted Hearne’s sonic patchwork for string ensemble, Law of Mosaics features ten dancers in color-blocked unitards of various hues who demonstrate a post-modern approach to ballet technique, closing with a solo for a barefoot dancer. 

Pam Tanowitz’ Law of Mosaics is her third work created for NYCB. The ballet for 10 dancers is set to Law of Mosaics, by composer, singer, bandleader, recording artist, and two-time finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for music, Ted Hearne. The ballet also features costumes by Reid Bartelme and Harriet Jung, and lighting by Brandon Stirling Baker.

RUBY LISTER ON PAM TANOWITZ’S LAW OF MOSAICS

In this decidedly authoritative solo from Pam Tanowitz’s Law of Mosaics, it’s fitting that control is the key to success. Originator Ruby Lister shares how the modern dance choreography enhances their classical technique, drawing on a range of references to illustrate the dance.
