The NightBirds Gala
the event
The NightBirds Gala was our annual gala benefiting Amanda+James and the work we do in service of young artists. The NightBirds gala celebrated our newest production, NightBirds in the Garden at the End of Time with performances, dinner and dancing.
THE PRODUCTION
NIGHTBIRDS
The NightBirds Gala supported the creation of NightBirds.
NightBirds is a ritual of song and dance. Crafted from the music of the singular 20th-century composer and avid ornithologist Olivier Messiaen, NightBirds is an immersion into his ecstatic vision of the connected universe. Currently a work in process, NightBirds will be further developed at the Pocantico Center as part of a grant from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
