The celebrated contemporary ballet company Alonzo King Lines Ballet will make a highly-anticipated return to the Flynn in May. The company will present their new work with master bio-acoustician Bernie Krause and composer Richard Blackford. The piece will feature new compositions, or “biophonies,” from Krause and Blackford that use natural soundscapes to accompany King’s highly expressive dancers. Known as one of the visionaries in today’s ballet world, Alonzo King is renowned for connecting with audiences through a sense of shared humanity.
