I GOT IT gRUnGE DaNCING
I have been watching (DVRing mostly) all of the related dance programs airing this summer. In researching popular music for dance camps and intensives, I have even resorted to watching music videos. Congratulations to MTV’s 30th anniversary who knew that such a genre would permeate television viewers, but my how you have strayed from music TV to quasi-reality rubbish. Anyway I think I found a new genre of contemporary dancing. GRUNGE unfortunately not a dance style of the 80’s music genre, but a contemporary style of dance not necessarily requiring any sort of training, yet technical, Grunge style of dance is more of a state of mind.
SUMMER DANCE RESOURCE
Ok so I have been remiss in receiving updates regarding summer dance in America and abroad. Firstly we are in a recession (a continual situation in the life of a dancer), and many of these week long intensives require hundreds of dollars for tuition, let alone travel, lodging, meals and expenses. I marvel at the idea of learning dance in a foreign country or in the rustic woods, and in as much as I need and long for expert training, I simply cannot afford it at this time.
Kudos to my colleagues and instructors participating in Summer Intensives, camps and exhibitions, I only wish I were in your company.
Recital Time
Patience in the wings
Yesterday I participated in a local dance recital for the very first time. I watched in amazement as the young dancers all excited (and many reserved and collected) staged their presentations from traditional dance to children’s games. Adorned in costumes from Sunflowers to Fairies, hoola-hoops to parasols, this undertaking culminated in a mind-boggling/awe-inspiring pageantry of well choreographed entrances and exits. From an observers standpoint I marveled at the chaos of what seemed like hundreds of little bodies finding their private space in the backstage area of a theater, only to take their rightful positions onstage in full confidence….and kill it! And yes the random on-stage distraction, mis-step, turn in the wrong direction, “where’s my partner?”, frown upside down, live audience, spontaneous combustion – to the most common solo child prodigy, is what makes this all so charming.
Happy 117th Birthday, Martha Graham!
Martha Graham (May 11, 1894 — April 1, 1991) was a great American dancer, choreographer, and pioneer of the modern dance. Today May 11 marks what would have been her 117th birthday. Internet giant Google, is celebrating the 117th birthday of Martha Graham with an animated google doodle in her honor. The google doodle animation was designed by Ryan Woodward.
