Our Story
Group Acorde came to life with the desire of two contemporary dancers and two jazz improvisational musicians to be a group that truly collaborates in all aspects of the creation process. The company strives to produce high quality work combining original music and contemporary dance choreography, where all the artists conceptualize the works from beginning to end. It's mission is to cultivate and educate audiences through live performances. The company looks to broaden it's reach by partnering with other organizations that can guide it to communities that may not otherwise have access to such opportunities. Acorde, a Portuguese word, means "wake up" and also means "chord". The definition of chord in the English language is “a combination of usually three or more musical tones sounded simultaneously” which reflects the collaborative spirit on which Group Acorde was created.
