LEWISTON – Danny Buraczeski’s classic “Swing Concerto” and a work by New York choreographer Peter Kyle will be featured in the annual December production by the Bates College Modern Dance Company.

Performances will be at 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 1; at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 2; and at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 3.

Here’s the complete program:

• “Serenade,” featuring music by Peter Schickele (aka P.D.Q. Bach) and performed by nine dancers, was created by Kyle for the Bates company.

• “When I Was Me” was created by Carol Dilley, assistant professor of dance at Bates and director of the dance program. Erin Pitt, a senior from Duxbury, Mass., performs the piece.

• “Swing Concerto” is a 1993 piece for nine dancers by Buraczeski, JAZZDANCE founder who came to Bates to reconstruct the work with Bates Dance Festival students and with the Modern Dance Company.

• “Ballad of Arrivals and Departures” is a collaborative piece for 14 performers. Bates artist-in-residence Heather McArdle served as “artistic architect” for the work, which features music by McArdle, Johnny Cash, Roberta Flack and others. The score was constructed by Eric Auner, a senior from Medford, Mass.

• “Silent Invitation” was choreographed and will be performed by Dilley and Maine choreographer Jill Spiewak Eng. Dilley also created video for the piece. The music is by William Matthews, Alice Swanson Esty Professor of Music at Bates.

Buraczeski helped redefine jazz dance in the United States. After a career on Broadway, appearing in such musicals as “The Act” with Liza Minelli, he formed the company JAZZDANCE by Danny Buraczeski, which has performed in more than 40 states and internationally. His work has been commissioned by the Walker Art Center, the Bates Dance Festival, Jacob’s Pillow and the Library of Congress.

Kyle has danced with Nikolais/Louis Dance Company, Mark Morris Dance Group and Erick Hawkins Dance Company. His choreography has been presented internationally, including commissions by Kaatsbaan International Dance Center, Symphony Space, the Dancenow/NYC festival and the Museum of Glass: International Center for Contemporary Art.
