The Solo Workshop, in collaboration with the UVM Lane Series, presents its fifth evening of new works, continuing an exploration of what “solo” means to both artist and audience. To explore the collaborative, creative process, The Solo workshop brings together five University of Vermont artists and five Middlebury College artists to form pairs of choreographer-dancers and composer-musicians. Each twosome creates and performs a new piece, investigating the rich history and possibilities of the interaction of music and dance.
