Alonzo King LINES Ballet
World Premiere Collaboration with San Francisco Opera Adler Fellows
April 16 - 25, 2010

This spring program features a world premiere collaboration with the San Francisco Opera Adler Fellows, blending classical with contemporary. Founded in 1977, Adler Fellowships are performance-oriented residencies for the most advanced young singers and coach/accompanists. Under the guidance of San Francisco Opera General Director David Gockley and Opera Center Director Sheri Greenawald, the Adler Fellowship Program offers intensive individual training and roles of increasing importance in San Francisco Opera's main-stage season.

In "Rasa", Alonzo King's dancers soar to new heights, performing to tabla master Zakir Hussain's score. At times romantic and thought-provoking, spiritual and physical, intimate and bold-"Rasa" connects audiences to a profound sense of shared humanity.
