Program Detail
Song & Dance
The American Voice - Showcasing the melting pot of trans-continental traditions that define modern American art forms, through movement and song.
A grassroots outreach project utilizing traditionally American music and dance styles as a means for participants to assimilate universal tools and performance techniques thus empowering them as better artists and players on the world stage.
From Shaker Hymns, rooted in Irish dance tunes, orchestrated for symphony by America’s premier composer and choreographed by the pioneers of 20th century American modern dance, to the gospel sounds that rang in the Age of Aquarius with unbridled pirouettes through Central Park amongst the post-modern skyscrapers of the 1970s – and everything in between...
Together, Song & Dance are the quintessence of American Musical Tradition.
