Alvin Ailey originally created and performed the solo 'Reflections in D' in 1963 as an interlude to give the other dancers time to change costumes between ballets. It has become an enduring work in the company’s repertory—Judith Jamison called it “a tone poem, a quiet, sparkling jewel.” Ailey Dancer Sarah Daley-Perdomo in 'Reflections in D' #AlvinAiley #AILEY | Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater

In 1971, Alvin Ailey choreographed Cry as a birthday present for his mother. Created on the legendary Judith Jamison, it went on to become an enduring work of American art. Mr. Ailey dedicated this piece to "all Black women everywhere--especially our mothers." In this 3-section solo, the dancer, clad in a white leotard and long ruffled skirt, brings the audience on a journey of bitter sorrow, brutal hardship and ecstatic joy. To all the mothers and mother figures, AILEY wishes you a Happy Mother

Here is your first look at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater's company premiere of Medhi Walerski's 'Blink of an Eye'. A moment—brief yet infinite. 'Blink of an Eye' explores the fragile boundary between presence and absence, change and stillness. Echoing Bach’s ‘Partitas for Solo Violin’, the work traces a dialogue between rigor and freedom, structure and emotion, the earthly and the divine. | Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater

SIGN SOLO // Featuring Ailey dancer Samantha Figgins, this solo from the dance film ‘Testament’ was choreographed by Yusha-Marie Sorzano in collaboration with Ms. Figgins.
