New Dance Theatre of Harlem DVD

[Helene]

I just received a "New Release" email from Arthaus announcing a new Dance Theatre of Harlem DVD:

Fall River Legend (Agnes de Mille)

Troy Game (Robert North)

The Beloved (Lester Norton)

John Henry (Arthur Mitchell)

There are more details and a trailer on the Arthaus site:

It will release on amazon.com on 28 February 2012, and can be pre-ordered.

Oh good -- I'm so glad to see this material re-released. The Horton and the deMille are particularly fine, and are difficult to come across in performance. ABT still does Fall River, but I don't think that The Beloved is in anyone's active repertory anymore.
