Dance
Reynolds has composed for dance throughout his career, most recently completing a concert length ballet with Ballet Austin called Cult of Color: Call to Color with choreographer Stephen Mills and visual artist Trenton Doyle Hancock. Other dance collaborators have included choreographers Yakov Sharir, Andrea Ariel, Ellen Bartel, Margery Segal, and others.
The full score to Cult of Color was released on CD and online in April 2008, and music from other dance pieces are featured on Golden Arm Trio’s Why the Sea is Salt and The Tick-Tock Club.
He also collaborated with Ballet Austin in 2010 for "The Bach Project" and will be working with Mills on "The Mozart Project" which will premiere in Fall 2011 at the beginning of their 2011-2012 season. Graham will select Mozart pieces to abstract and recreate in his own vision. The score will be for amplified and effected violin and cello.

Famous quotes containing the word dance:
“No imperfection in budded mountain,
Valleys breathe, heaven and earth move together,
daisies push inches of yellow air, vegetables tremble,
green atoms shimmer in grassy mandalas,
sheep speckle the mountainside, revolving their jaws with empty eyes,
horses dance in the warm rain,”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“The deft white-stockinged dance in thick-soled
shoes! Denmark’s sanctuaried Jews!”
—Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
“Is that dance slowing in the mind of man
That made him think the universe could hum?”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
