AMOC* Up Close kicks off this week–and it's on The New York Times's must-see list.
The American Modern Opera Company (AMOC*) returns to Lincoln Center with three intimate, unmissable performances, all for free.
"The opening program, on Feb. 28, features a new song cycle by Matthew Aucoin, whose keen instinct for incisive texts made his recent "Eurydice" at the Met a gripping retelling of the myth. New works for strings take center stage on March 19; "On the Hinge of Modernity" (April 2) places works by the early 17th-century Venetian composer Dario Castello alongside pieces by the 20th-century modernist Luciano Berio, investigating links between radical innovators working centuries apart." – The New York Times

Dancing not only makes your heart happy, it also makes it healthy. As a form of exercise, dance has been shown to alleviate stress and anxiety as well as lower blood pressure and cholesterol, explains Dr. Marwah Abdalla, a cardiologist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia. Current health guidelines recommend 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise a week for the best cardiovascular benefits, so come get your groove on at our session with Alvin Ailey Extension and vogue your way to a healthier heart.
