Alonzo King LINES Ballet pays tribute to the iconic Alice Coltrane—spiritual leader, composer, pianist and harpist—and the imaginative storytelling of Maurice Ravel in Ma mère l’Oye (Mother Goose) through King’s electrifying choreography.

Since childhood, King has been captivated by Coltrane’s music, even choreographing one of his first pieces to her work. Now, he’s diving back into her legacy to create a ballet with Coltrane’s masterpieces, including Journey In Satchidananda—recognized as one of Rolling Stone’s greatest albums—A Monastic Trio, Universal Consciousness, and Ptah, the El Daoud, continue to inspire.
