A recipient of the Princess Grace Choreography Fellowship Award, Darrell Grand Moultrie has established himself as one of America’s most diverse and sought-after choreographers and master teachers. Moultrie’s premiere Ounce of Faith was performed by The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre during their engagement at New York’s Lincoln Center.

Moultrie also choreographed El Publico, a new opera at the world famous Teatro Real in Madrid, Spain directed by Robert Castro and conducted by Robert Heras-Casado.

Moultrie was selected by Grammy Award winning artist Beyoncé as a choreographer on her record-breaking “Mrs. Carter Show” world tour. Moultrie is a proud New Yorker, born and raised in Harlem, and a graduate of P.S. 144, Laguardia High School, and The Juilliard School.
