Louisville Ballet Performs 'Three Reflections' at Kentucky Center, 2/26 & 2/27

The Louisville Ballet will dance 3 performances of "Three Reflections" at the Kentucky Center for Performing Arts on February 26 and 27. On Friday the 26 the performance will take place at 8 pm. On Saturday the 27, there will be two performances, one at 2 pm and one at 8 pm.

As spring draws near, the Louisville Ballet offers a trio of delights: Celts, Cold Virtues, and the birth of a world premiere by Amy Seiwert.

Cold Virtues will be choreographed by Adam Hougland with music by Philip Glass. "Three Reflections" offers dance lovers the long-awaited revival of Adam Hougland's first commission for the Louisville Ballet. Hougland's Cold Virtues creates intriguing perspectives of love, lust, relationships and their interconnectedness. The Courier-Journal called Cold Virtues, "beautifully bleak, honest in unflinching fashion...Cold Virtues is indeed an icy bit of sly observation."

Celts will be choreographed by Lila York with musical complication featuring The Chieftains, Bill Whelan, William Ruhle, Celtic Thunder, and Dan Ar Braz. Named one of Dance Magazine's 25 to Watch in 2005, Amy Seiwert's work is classically based yet has a contemporary voice. In addition to her commissions for Smuin Ballet, where she serves as Choreographer in Residence, she has also created ballets for Colorado Ballet, Oklahoma City Ballet, Ballet Austic and her own company, im'ij-re. This world premiere marks Seiwert'e debut with the Louisville Ballet. Celt is a high-energy feast for the senses filled with Irish music and nods to traditional Irish dance.

Tickets will range in price from $25 to $95.
