Amazing to see this, I have only seen still photos! The music is surprisingly awful, IMO, must have been Louis Horst accompanying the dance, but it sound like he's accompanying a silent movie, so literal and monotonous! The first time I watched this I didn't have the sound on - much better! Would be interesting to create a new score for it. Thank you so much for posting.
I think the music helps in understanding the dance. The heretic's pleading for mercy is rebuffed over and over -- monotonous, as you say-- until she finally gives up. At least that's how I understand it. Idk what Graham thought.
I bet the footfalls, which we can't hear, added a lot. Naturally it was filmed with no sound and in some way this sound was added later, perhaps from a written score and some guesswork!@@ChrisBECKETT-k4x
tô sabeno, haha. queria saber desse vídeo em específico. onde foi gravado? quem são os dançarinos? tem outros registros dessa apresentação? etc. você sabe?
so ahead of her time! such a pioneer! she dared to show (and share) herself in HER way. not a typical kind of dance in the 1920s... kudos, martha.
@Codebook Spectrum you know it. pls pass along my greetings you your friend!
What is dance? Dance is art and she was one of the great artists.
Qu'elle était géniale! quelle force!
Goddamn it, this is so powerful and beautiful.
Hermosas composiciones corporales, amo demasiado esto!!!

Heretic premiered in 1929 and this was filmed in 1931.
Do you have the source?
Wonderful Martha Graham.

Graham and Horst had an exceedingly tight artistic complicity. if this music is what they agreed on for this work, so be it.
