Released in the throes of bro-country and before pop stars were crossing over into the genre left and right\, it showcased an artist completely unafraid to double down not only on herself\, but what she’d always loved: classic country songs written from the intellect and the gut\, hell-bent on truth-telling and both timeless and urgent all at once. Respected by her peers\, praised by critics and beloved by her fans\, Price created a lane where independent-minded\, insurgent country music can exist and thrive alongside the mainstream\, and became an ardent fighter for her beliefs in a genre where the norm is to shut up and sing. A trailblazer and a champion for the craft\, Price redefined what it meant to be a modern country artist. \nAnd now she’s back with an exquisite\, truly timeless album that reconnects with her roots and pays tribute to the art of the country song\, inspired in part by the legends whom she now calls colleagues and friends. Hard Headed Woman is both a look forward and a look back: a way to march forward while staying true to yourself when the path of less resistance is right there in front of us\, and short cuts are around every corner. And a way to look back when we need to trim what is no longer working\, and to stay connected with where we’re from. It is a promise and a manifesto\, a love song to both a city and a genre\, and a defiant cry for individuality. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Parking\nParking can be challenging\, particularly for sold-out events.

SUMMARY:Ailey II: The Next Generation of Dance
DESCRIPTION:For over 50 years\, Ailey II – The Next Generation of Dance – has merged the spirit and energy of the country’s finest early-career dance talent with the passion and creative vision of today’s most outstanding and emerging choreographers. Founded by Alvin Ailey in 1974\, this universally renowned company embodies his pioneering mission to establish an extended cultural community that provides dance performances\, training\, and community programs for all people. Under the leadership of Sylvia Waters\, who served as artistic director for 38 seasons\, Ailey II flourished into one of the most popular modern dance companies\, combining a rigorous touring schedule with extensive community outreach programs. Today\, with Artistic Director Francesca Harper at the helm\, she brings fresh perspectives to Mr. Ailey’s legacy\, while nurturing new creative voices and propelling the company forward. \nPROGRAM \n  \nStreamsChoreographer Alvin Ailey’s abstract exploration of bodies in space\, danced to a percussion score by Miloslav Kabelac. This highly structured yet fluid compilation of solos\, duets\, and group choreography reflects the formal\, meditative mood of Kabelac’s music. While there is no narrative\, the movement and music arouse distinct thoughts and feelings\, evoking images and sensations inspired by bodies of water — from a gentle brook to a turbulent ocean — that correlate to the changing tides within us. \nDown the Rabbit HoleInspired by The Matrix film series\, “Down the Rabbit Hole” explores how technology weaves into the fabric of daily life\, transforming how we as humans interact and function. Set to a score by Johannes Goldbach and Pomassl\, Thomas begs the question\, in this high-powered piece: Technological change — are we powering it or is it powering us? \nRevelationsPerformed to African American spirituals\, song-sermons\, gospel songs\, and holy blues\, Alvin Ailey’s Revelations fervently explores the places of deepest grief and holiest joy in the soul. More than just a popular dance work\, it has become a cultural treasure\, beloved by generations of fans. Seeing Revelations for the first time or the hundredth can be a transcendent experience\, with audiences cheering\, singing along\, and dancing in their seats from the opening notes of the plaintive “I Been ’Buked” to the rousing “Wade in the Water” and the triumphant finale\, “Rocka My Soul in the Bosom of Abraham.” \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				“Revelations” Repertoire Class for All Levelsdesigned for ages 10+\nThursday\, February 195-6:15pmVarsity Gym Dance Studios 208 A & B\, App State\, 530 Rivers Street\, Boone\n\nFREE and open to the public\n\nRegistration appreciated.
