Collaborations include, “Commonthread” (2009) with Autumn Eckman and John Ovnik. It debuted at the Harris Theater and was commissioned by Giordano Jazz Dance Chicago. “Autumn Eckman’s intriguing premiere ‘commonthread’ is set to a fascinating score by Dan Myers and John Ovnik (played live on electric violin by Myers)… The score, with hints of Irish, Turkish, and Slavic folk music, was counterpointed by constantly varying combinations of three men and two women.” Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times.
