Big Boi latest musician to branch out
The Miami City Ballet commissioned Elvis Costello to create a score for it. The British rocker collaborated with choreographer Twyla Tharp and designer Isaac Mizrahi on "Nightspot," which premiered March 28. It is not the first ballet Costello has composed. He created a score, "Il Sogno" -- "The Dream, " after Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" -- in 2002 for the Italian dance company Aterballetto. Lucas Jackson / AP
