Music: Stravinsky, “The Rite of Spring” Performed by Philharmonic Orchestra Conducted by Igor Markevich (recorded in 1959)
Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring premiered in 1913, signifying the dawn of a new era in music. This music has inspired many western choreographers, and now, BeijingDance/ LDTX’s Chinese choreographers offer their unique version, All River Red. The work reflects how contemporary dance has been developing in 20th century in China against all odds. All River Red shows not so much a comfortable fusion of East-meets-West, but a direct and violent confrontation between those adhering to tradition and those aspiring to innovation. |
