Malpaso Dance Company Is Filled with Information and Ideas That Support the Performance and the Study Unit You Will Create with Your Teaching Artist
The Joyce Dance Education Program Resource and Reference Guide Photo by Laura Diffenderfer The Joyce’s School & Family Programs are supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council; and made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. Special support has been provided by Con Edison, The Walt Disney Company, A.L. and Jennie L. Luria Foundation, and May and Samuel Rudin Family Foundation, Inc. December 10, 2018 Dear Teachers, The resource and reference material in this guide for Malpaso Dance Company is filled with information and ideas that support the performance and the study unit you will create with your teaching artist. For this performance, Malpaso will present Ohad Naharin’s Tabla Rasa in its entirety. Tabula Rasa made its world premiere on the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre on February 6, 1986. Thirty-two years after that first performance, on May 4, 2018, this seminal work premiered on Malpaso Dance Company in Cuba. Check out the link here for the mini-documentary on Ohad Naharin’s travels to Havana to work with Malpaso. This link can also be found in the Resources section of this study guide. A new work by company member Beatriz Garcia Diaz will also be on the program, set to music by the Italian composer Ezio Bosso. The title of this work is the Spanish word Ser, which translates to “being” in English. I love this quote by Kathleen Smith from NOW Magazine Toronto: "As the theatre begins to vibrate with accumulated energy, you get the feeling that they could dance just about any genre with jaw-dropping style. -

Ranking Selena Gomez Songs: Worst to Best
Ranking Selena Gomez Songs: Worst to Best Selena Gomez is one of the biggest pop stars of this day and age. I personally have been a big fan of hers for years now, and while I don’t love every single song she’s released I still like the majority of them. For this ranking I decided to only do songs after she stopped singing with her band The Scene and I have also not added in “We Don’t Talk Anymore” with Charlie Puth. I had a lot of fun putting this list together and figuring out where her Songs ranked for me. Read on for more! “Birthday” A bit repetitive and kind of annoying. Sorry, Selena. “B.E.A.T” I’m not a big fan of the music, the lyrics, or really the way Selena sings this song. Still, the lyrics are alright, I guess. “Music Feels Better” A pretty good song, but a bit repetitive. “Body Heat” The lyrics are alright, but I think the beat of this song really pulls it together. “Like A Champion” Eh. The lyrics are alright, but Selena’s voice sounds beautiful singing it so that’s a plus. “Revival” The talking at the beginning is a bit strange, but the song is still good nonetheless. It has a good beat and the lyrics are really good as well. “Me And My Girls” This song is a bit edgy and it talks about girl power which I’m always down for. “Save The Day” Pretty catchy. “Write Your Name” This song about “writing your name” and being a permanent part of someone’s life is catchy. -
