Musiqa, Houston’s leading contemporary music ensemble, champions new works and multidisciplinary art through collaborations with Houston Ballet II and other cultural partners.
The process begins by creating choreography to recordings of the music before the musicians arrive. Instead of a conductor acting as a middleman, Musiqa’s small ensembles — often comprised of seasoned musicians, many of them teachers and established performers—work directly with the dancers.
Many notable Academy alum have created works for Musiqa collaborations, including Houston Ballet Soloist Jacquelyn Long and Academy alumna Sara Guo.
Join us at Midtown Arts & Theater Center Houston (MATCH) this January to find out why a Musiqa concert is unlike any other in Houston.
