  • The Limón Legacy Still Thrives After 70 Years by Jeff Slayton March 25, 2017
    The Limón Legacy Still Thrives After 70 Years By Jeff Slayton March 25, 2017 The Limón Dance Company - Photo by Joseph Schembri “There is a dance for every single human experience.” José Limón The Limón Dance Company lit up the stage at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, presenting three works choreographed by José Limón over seventy years ago, and two recent works by Colin Connor and Kate Weare. Thanks to dance artists like Carla Maxwell, Risa Steinberg, Gary Masters and the new Artistic Director Colin Connor, the company has kept the Limón legacy alive and vibrant. In addition, the company continues to present new works by seasoned and up-and-coming choreographers. Born in Culiacan, Mexico, José Limón (1908-1972) formed his company in 1946 after performing for 10 years with modern dance pioneers Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman. Throughout his life, Limón continued to create new works; his last one being Carlota in 1972, the year of his death. In 1997, this great dance master was inducted into the Hall of Fame at the National Museum of Dance in Saratoga Springs, NY. The program opened with Limón’s CONCERTO GROSSO which premiered in 1945 at the Humphrey-Weidman Studio in New York. Through his choreography, Limón artfully and brilliantly visualizes Antonio Vivaldi’s Concerto #11 in D Minor, Opus 3. The work is, simply put, pure and joyful dancing. Staged and directed by former company member Risa Steinberg, dancers Kathryn Alter, Elise Drew Leon and Jesse Obremski performed with great musicality, clarity and ease. CONCERTO GROSSO is a jewel and these three dance artists are wonderful in it.

Weekly ​ ​ highlights feature streams of beloved Festival performances from the past ten years, a series of new PillowTalks with leaders in the dance field, an online version of the beloved intergenerational movement class Families Dance together, and a new Master Class Series from The School at Jacob’s Pillow. Attendees are encouraged to make a contribution in lieu of purchasing a ticket and fifty percent of donations for performances will be shared with the artists featured. Community Engagement events will share proceeds with local community organizations. “After we canceled our on-site Festival due to the global pandemic, we soon realized the need to fulfill our mission by engaging artists and audiences in a quintessential summer experience from Jacob’s Pillow virtually,” says Jacob’s Pillow Executive & Artistic Director Pamela Tatge. “The civic organizing and protests confronting racism and inequality in our country greatly impacts our organization’s decision-making. The model we envision is one that is free for all, made more accessible by being entirely online, pays artists and scholars for their time, and provides artists with additional support during a time when many have lost their income.

I am so pleased that you are joining me for a very special time filled with dance, community, and fellowship. As we come together in anticipation of the extraordinary experience we are about to share, I encourage you to look around and connect with someone you have not yet met. You can be sure that you have at least one commonality! This Winter Dance Series brings together the old, the new, and the timeless—and is sure to delight, inspire, and move us. Let us share more than space and, instead, be open to exchanging thoughts, ideas, and perspectives. In doing so, I hope that we each come away with a deeper understanding of ourselves and those around us. LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR THE LETTER FROM The Winter Dance Series begins with Mark Morris’ Pepperland, set to a score of innovative arrangements of the iconic songs from the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album, performed by a live jazz ensemble. Originally commissioned by the city of Liverpool to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the groundbreaking album, this delightful, vividly colorful hour-long work demonstrates why this dancemaker is noted as “the most successful and influential choreographer alive, and indisputably the most musical” (New York Times).

One was hard to miss, and the other easy to overlook. The first phase, when he burst onto the scene in the annual gifts of $10,000 and above. early 1980s, challenged a number of the dance world’s pieties: Morris foregrounded his queerness during an era when many choreographers favored a glass closet, questioned when and whether gender matters, and made dances marked by Their deep affliliation ensures the success and longevity of the a devotion to music that was at once brainy and deeply felt. Pillow’s annual offerings, including educational initiatives, free public programs, The School, the Archives, and more. This musicality might have seemed something of a throwback if not for the fact that few choreographers—perhaps not even George Balanchine—have been so precisely and wittily attentive to the structural nuances of a musical score, and if not for the fact that Morris directed his musicality at any genre whatsoever, from un-championed gems of the PRESENTS $25,000+ baroque repertory, to the Carnatic traditions of India, to deep cuts from mavericks like Yoko Ono and Harry Partch.
