“Borrowed Light,” choreographed by Tero Saarinen, and performances by the Batsheva Dance Company, the Kronos Quartet, and the Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan will be featured during this fall’s Next Wave Festival, the Brooklyn Academy of Music announced today. Other performances include the choreographer John Jasperse’s “Misuse liable to prosecution,” commissioned by BAM, the composer Tan Dun’s “The Gate,” copresented with the Brooklyn Philharmonic, and the singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens’s commissioned work “The BQE,” a story about Brooklyn that combines music and film.

“True to its original mission, the 25th edition of the Next Wave Festival will provide an adventure through the contemporary artistic landscape. It will offer entertaining and challenging work in a wide range of experiences,” the executive director of BAM, Joseph Melillo, said.

The festival will also join up with PERFORMA07, a city biennial of visual art performance, for a presentation of “Cast No Shadow,” created by the filmmaker Isaac Julien and the choreographer Russell Maliphant.
