Fall For Dance
Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 8 was written for “the victims of fascism and war.” In May 2018, for Austin Camerata’s second season, this quartet was transformed into an original ballet with choreography by Dorothy O’Shea Overbey. In November 2019, the dance department at the University of Texas reimagined the project for the fall dance showcase.
