‘Vortex’ is a contemporary work choreographed by Dianna Cuatto and set to music by Marc Galiber. This work was choreographed and first performed in 2013, which is the performance you are about to see. Cuatto and Galiber collaborated to create the music that fit Cuatto’s vision, which was inspired by the four vortexes (Boynton Canyon, Cathedral Rock form Red River Crossing, Bell Rock, and Airport Mesa) in Sedona, AZ. Vortexes perform a similar role for the Earth as chakras do in the human body. Power is concentrated in the vortexes where earth ley lines meet and this energy powers out in swirling spirals of knowledge, healing, and light. This idea of swirling power influenced the movement behind ‘Vortex.’
