Music from the Sole

Tap, percussive dance, samba, house, and live music come together in I Didn't Come to Stay, which premiered earlier this year. Brazilian tap dancer and choreographer Leonardo Sandoval and bassist and composer Gregory Richardson lead eight dancers and a five-piece band in a performance that explores tap's lineage and connections to other Afro-Diasporic forms. The performance reflects on racial and cultural identity, while celebrating the joy, strength, depth, and virtuosity of Black dance and music.
