As part of its new 2024 Spring Season, Baryshnikov Arts presents Shifting Ground, a theatrical concert performed by Alexi Kenney and Xuan. The world premiere of this immersive multidisciplinary program, combining violin and new media art, will take place on Thursday, April 25, 2024 at 7 pm, with additional showings on Friday, April 26, 2024 at 7pm and Saturday, April 27, 2024 at 7 pm. Tickets are $35 + $4 fee and are available at baryshnikovarts.org.

Violinist Alexi Kenney and new media artist Xuan combine their creative forces in an immersive multidisciplinary program that joins solo violin works from the 18th to 21st centuries with boundary-pushing projection art. Music by J. S. Bach and Nicola Matteis flows seamlessly into works by new voices such as Rafiq Bhatia and Angélica Negrón, as Xuan conjures immersive, imaginative landscapes on the themes of fracture and repair in response.

Produced in collaboration with the Ojai Music Festival.
