Late to the Party Trajal Harrell / Zürich Dance Ensemble

In Late to the Party, Trajal Harrell approaches the music of Nina Simone from a belated yet urgent perspective. The work begins from a personal encounter whose resonance unfolds only decades later: the discovery of Simone as voice, as body, as attitude. Moving between voice and music, classical form and radical expression, the choreographic project asks what happens when these elements are separated and brought together anew.
