THIS PARTICULAR SHOW may not be composed of the most ideal programming, but I'll take the Trisha Brown Dance Company any way I can get it. The purity and intelligence of Brown's choreography remain one of the wonders of American dance. Very few artists succeed in translating ideas to the stage to make them look ordinary and sublime at the same time. Merce Cunningham does, and Brown is every bit his equal – and in terms of sheer visual appeal, she sometimes is his superior. With Brown you always sense a mind at work, an articulate intelligence needing to come up with solutions to the challenges she sets for herself. Yet Brown's choreography doesn't intimidate; it seduces you with the sheer delight of its physicality. The program includes Set and Reset – a classic from 1983 last seen here five years ago, with music by Laurie Anderson and a set by Robert Rauschenberg – and the last movement of Brown's "El Trilogy," Groove and Countermove, which features a jazz score by Dave Douglas and was performed at Stanford in 2001. The only new work is Present Tense, set to prepared piano pieces by John Cage. 8 p.m., UC Berkeley, Bancroft at Telegraph, Berk. $26-$48. (510) 642-9988, www.calperfs.berkeley.edu. (Rita Felciano)
