For centuries, dance and music have been intertwined disciplines, the developments in one informing the evolution of the other.

The practice of dance enhances our understanding of the music written for it, and when well-known and newly rediscovered musical works are performed as accompaniment to the dances they existed alongside, the audience is able to better engage not just with the culture and aesthetic of past centuries, but to participate more fully in the transmission of art between performer and concertgoer.
