Varese Sarabande Records To Release 'Flesh And Bone Ballet' EP
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Varèse Sarabande will release the FLESH AND BONE Ballet EP digitally on January 15, 2016. The album features the four-movement original Dakini Ballet composed by Adam Crystal (SO GOOD TO SEE YOU, Canvas [ballet]).

FLESH AND BONE is a dark and gritty series following a young dancer, Claire, as she joins a prestigious New York City ballet company and encounters the glamour and dysfunction of the ballet world. She becomes Artistic Director Paul's muse, creating new opportunities and new enemies. Claire's self-destructive tendencies amid her vaulting ambitions drive her in compelling, unforeseeable ways, especially when she is confronted with the machinations of the company's mercurial Artistic Director and an unwelcome visitor from her past.

Series creator Moira Walley-Beckett and choreographer Ethan Stiefel collaborated on a 13-minute original ballet for the series. "The narrative for the ballet was obviously created by Moira, which was following a woman going through these different phases of growing and becoming empowered," Stiefel explained. "I had to create something that works not only as a ballet that looks good and is effective on camera, but also works within the context of the actual episode and what else is happening while that ballet is being performed. And what's really fantastic is that we had a fantastic composer (Adam Crystal), create an original score for Dakini because the producers wanted something completely fresh, completely new."

"The ballet is essentially about a young lady finding her own feet and becoming self empowered," said Crystal. "In the four movement piece we explore her journey from when she's being born, to childhood and adolescence as she builds relationships. Then we go into sexual exploration and then from that point she is basically finding her sense of self."

Adam Crystal is a composer and musician based out of New York City. He began his classical music studies at age four on the violin in Berkeley CA. His versatile work spans scoring films, documentaries, modern dance and ballet pieces, art installations & videos, commercials and fashion shows. In the ballet world, Adam is a sought after composer for original commissions. His recent compositions have included Canvas, which premiered at the Vail International Dance Festival, Final Dress for the Royal New Zealand Ballet and Balloon Dance, for Works and Process at the Guggenheim. In March 2016 his most recent ballet commission GRID will premiere at Lincoln Center with Paul Taylor American Modern Dance.

Recently Adam has been focusing much of his composing time in television and film. He has worked with Academy Award™ winners Errol Morris and Cynthia Wade. His music has also appeared on Showtime's HAPPYISH, the STARZ mini-series FLESH AND BONE, and Discovery's VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL. Recent films include THOSE PEOPLE, THIS IS HAPPENING, GIVE UP TOMORROW, BORN TO FLY, and SO GOOD TO SEE YOU, which will premiere January 2016 at the Sundance Film Festival.

A classically trained violinist and multi-instrumentalist, Adam has spent many years touring and performing on piano, keyboards, and violin for various bands including Fischerspooner, My Chemical Romance, Beirut, The Citizens Band, among many others.

STARZ presents the limited television series FLESH AND BONE, currently viewable at STARZ On Demand. Varèse Sarabande will release the FLESH AND BONE Ballet EP digitally on January 15, 2015
