In the heart of Montrose at Brasil Café’s Flatland Gallery, a group of local artists will premiere an intimate performance collaboration entitled COLOR, on December 1st and 2nd. Original music, created by composer Jeremy Nuncio, and choreography from Jacquelyne Boe will be performed by a cast of classically-trained, versatile contemporary dancers including Jacquelyne Boe, Siri Ell and Brit Wallis.
COLOR was conceived through conversations of color theory and the science behind prisms. The choreographic phrases and process were drawn from sourced images of each color of the rainbow, darkness and light. The seven colors and sections of the choreography informed the musical composition, which was composed from ideas around the human connection and experience with color present in everyday life.
COLOR was created with the performance space Flatland Gallery in mind. The three rooms of the gallery are utilized so that all audience members will receive a unique and close up experience with each of the performing dancers.

About Jeremy Nuncio
Jeremy Nuncio is a pianist and composer whose musical infinity lies in the contemporary minimal and improvisational music; both Western and non-Western. During his studies at the Moores School of Music he met his first private jazz piano instructor, Robert Boston. This event would prove to be a great shift for Jeremy and his approach to improvisation; broadening his view of the role that improvisation can play. It was also during this time he studied and performed traditional Balkan music with local Bulgarian zurna player, Hristo Alexiev. Unsatisfied with the tonal possibilities of acoustic instruments, Jeremy began his pursuit into the field of sound design.
