I'm so amazed at the way Horton is able to create movement that's all at once rigid and relaxed... The combination of the upright, flat back and the released limbs creates a heightened sense of movement that is so effective in storytelling! I love it!
there was narration almost as a prequel and as the piece starts. "behold thou art fair my love.......' look for versions staged by James Truitte who danced it in the Horton company. He staged (and danced it) at U of Cincinnati throught eh late 60's and early 70's

We did a 3 month study on this dance
No, this was not Martha Graham. She was one of the dancers from Danny Grossman Dance Company
is this the original dance performance by Lester? If not do you know where I can find the original one?
No, this video clip was taken at a later date. It was staged from Labanotation score.
What's the song?
Is that Girl Martha Graham??
Is this tap dance
No this is a modern dance
I thought this piece was set to text?
