The concert features Gallant’s longtime collaborator, Alan Moverman on live piano. Ms. Gallant will also perform a selection of the Brahms Waltzes, Op. 39 (c.1912), a spirited work from Duncan’s early phase. A short film reflects on Gallant’s personal journey in the legacy of Isadora Duncan: first at age ten discovering a book in her school library, encountering Duncan’s work on public television in 1976, and finally studying with teachers of Duncan’s technique in New York City—learning more than 100 dances and becoming a recognized interpreter of the work. A second animated film abstracts Duncan’s iconic silk tunic, with uninhabited tunics flowing and falling through fantastical environments of water, wind, earth, and sky. Finally two recent dances, Stand (2025) and Late Echo (2022), both choreographed by Gallant, present her contemporary choreographic practice, distinct from Duncan’s movement vocabulary.2027 marks the 150th Anniversary of Isadora Duncan's birth, which Gallant recognizes with “GIFT: A Life In Dance” to acknowledge Duncan’s formative contributions to the development of modern dance and those who pass on her artistry.guest artists Marie Carstens and Lakey Evans-Peña perform on Fri., January 23photos: Melanie Futorian, Alex GrammaCatherine Gallant/DANCEDances by Isadora - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/gift-a-life-in-dance/100001975139157389 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, music, live-music, performances, art, concerts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 23.18, max: 55.2, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Gibney 280 Broadway - **lat**: 40.7139234 - **long**: -74.0054772 - **full address**: Gibney 280 Broadway, 53A Chambers Street, New York, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: GIFT: A life in dance. - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/e72600c93af489496d836e638d3ba81e9659baa9122b83bec4a629b5eb966ed4-rimg-w776-h704-dcfffffe-gmir.jpg?v=1764132325 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is GIFT: A life in dance. being held? - **A:** GIFT: A life in dance. takes place on Fri, 23 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Sat, 24 Jan, 2026 at 08:35 pm at Gibney 280 Broadway, 53A Chambers Street, New York, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for GIFT: A life in dance.? - **A:** Ticket prices for GIFT: A life in dance. range from USD 23 to USD 55 depending on the ticket type.
