Lumedia Musicworks Presents “Into the Gamba-Verse” — A Fusion of Baroque Music and Modern Dance at Gracepoint Media Studios, Dallas
Lumedia Musicworks announces the release of its newest short film, Into the Gamba-Verse, a mesmerizing blend of baroque music and contemporary dance, premiering at Gracepoint Media Studios in Dallas on December 2 at 7:30 p.m. This exclusive red carpet event redefines traditional classical music performances, setting early music against the backdrop of modern dance choreographed by Bruce Wood Dance Dallas’s Artistic Director, Joy Bollinger.
Inspired by Marin Marais’ dance-driven Chaconne en Rondeau, an 18th-century composition for bass viola da gamba and continuo, the film merges modern dance with the timeless resonance of early music. Bruce Wood Dance Dallas joins Lumedia Musicworks in this collaboration at Dallas’s first RX video wall studio, where the project was filmed in early 2024.
Alongside the premiere screening of Into the Gamba-Verse, Lumedia’s early music band will perform a live concert featuring selections by Marais, Forqueray, and d’Hervelois. Known for their “innovative approach” to classical music (Friends of WRR Classical Radio), Lumedia Musicworks continues to push the boundaries of the genre, presenting historical works with a contemporary twist.
This unique red carpet event invites patrons to dress in attire with “bling, sparkle, and stardust” to celebrate the film’s cosmic experiment. Tickets are $50 and include complimentary libations, bites, and an engaging Q&A session with the artists following the screening.
Tickets are available for purchase online and at the door.
