BALLETS JAZZ MONTRÉAL – DANCE ME: The Music of Leonard Cohen
A masterpiece inspired by the timeless work of Montreal poet, artist, and songwriter Leonard Cohen.

Approved by Cohen himself, Dance Me is a breathtaking journey through the grand cycles of life—told in five seasons, woven through his music, and brought to life by three world-renowned choreographers:
Andonis Foniadakis • Annabelle Lopez Ochoa • Ihsan Rustem.

With 14 extraordinary BJM performing artists and a visionary creative team, this production fuses dance, music, lighting, scenography, and videography into an unforgettable tribute to Montreal’s greatest ambassador.
