MUSIC 150 Lecture Notes - Concert Dance
Document Summary
One regret of mine was that i had never attended a dance performance in my life. The opportunities have presented themselves to me in the past, and unfortunately i had no interest in attending. My first experience with concert dance occurred on the night of october twenty- second in the concert hall of the fine arts center. The kyle abraham dance company was performing abraham in motion. I knew nothing about the performance and did not exactly know what to expect, so i was somewhat excited. What i found is that the performance was about the helplessness and despair of oppressed peoples and their constant struggle to rise above what is holding them down. For a stretch during the performance there were three men on stage interacting with each other. Two of the men were dancing somewhat strangely, with rapid movements and much energy, as if they were trying their hardest to do something.
