Dance Company Premieres Tech Composer's Work

The world premiere of the ballet "Horizontal Leanings," with music by Vivek Maddala, EE 95, will be presented May 1-4 at the Newmark Theater in Portland, Ore.

Maddala was commissioned by the internationally renowned dance company BodyVox earlier this year to compose the music for the modern ballet, which explores such diverse themes as community survival and cultural identity while contrasting the fragmented world of friction and alienation with a cohesive world of collective effort. The production fuses innovative choreography with Maddala's postmodern music compositions.
