Schubert Melodies

The company will present Schubert Melodies, an evening of dance celebrating Franz Schubert, on October 15, 2022 at 7:30pm. Commissioned by Verb supporters, Marian and Eric Klieber, the program will feature Franz Schubert’s Octet in F Major played by musicians from the Blue Water Orchestra. Co-choreographed by Kay Eichman and Richard Dickinson, this one-hour work is set in the 1820’s, when it was written. The evening will also showcase the work of Heinz Poll with a performance of his Schubert Waltzes (1974) played live by Adam Whiting, concert pianist. This delicate, beautiful ballet features three sets of couples that exhibit a combination of classicism and wit.
