dirac Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 San Francisco Ballet dancers perform a "linked" dance from home. Quote The video, entitled "Sequentia," posted on SF Ballet's Facebook page, described the endeavor: "We may be distant, but we’re not disconnected. In Sequentia, a choreographic chain letter, ten SF Ballet dancers connect through movement. Set to music played by SF Ballet Orchestra Musicians." Link to comment

dirac Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 A review of William Dunas' Edwin Denby – His Life, His Dance Essays, His Poetry by George Jackson for danceviewtimes. Quote This home-made book is a proposal for producing a professionally printed book. The proposal consists of many un-numbered pages of text contained in a black 3-ring folder. The text is photocopied only on the frontside of each sheet of firm white paper. On the cover is the basic bibliographic information and a 1964 drawing by Red Grooms of Denby in profile - he is typing. Dunas calls the book a “publishing fellowship proposal manuscript”. It is unlikely that the proposed book will ever become actual, yet the proposal serves as an autobiography of Dunas and a biography of Denby. The Dunas portion is amusing, somewhat confusing and ultimately sad. The Denby part is substantial. Who was Dunas and who was Denby? Link to comment
