Dancecleveland SIXTY YEARS SINCE 1956 DC@60 DANCECleveland SIXTY YEARS SINCE 1956 DC@60 From a church basement to the glittering lights of Playhouse Square, DANCECleveland has had a storied journey which has matched the innovation and growth of the art form of modern dance itself. Founded by a group of dance lovers, the organization has always had at its core a dogged determination to advance the understanding and appreciation of dance. Through all six decades of our history, our organization has presented the best and most innovative dance com- panies on stages around northeast Ohio. We have fo- cused on creative educational experiences for children and adults, commissioned new work by leading dance makers and worked tirelessly to bring the passion and verve of modern and contemporary dance, in all of its passion verve forms, to the people of northeast Ohio. In doing so, + DANCECleveland has blossomed into an organization as exciting and innovative as the medium itself and has of modern dance become a vital piece in the mosaic of arts organizations in northeast Ohio. It has been both my pleasure and privilege to serve an organization with such a rich history and national rep- utation. Although the agenda for this organization has changed over time, its focus on mission has remained constant. Perhaps our most significant job has been and continues to be to serve as a compass, gauging where modern dance has been and how its innovative dance makers are charting a path forward. This publication is dedicated to that journey.

    The choreographer Lar Lubovitch, who has been making dances for 50 years, is known for his musicality. CreditGeorge Etheredge for The New York Times Lar Lubovitch: His Palette? All Arms and Legs. Mr. Lubovitch, who’s been a choreographer for 50 years, talks about his work and learning from the best: Graham, Limón and the stage of a nightclub. By MARINA HARSSAPRIL 13, 2018 The choreographer Lar Lubovitch didn’t discover dance until college, where he had gone in hopes of becoming a painter. The impulse to fill a canvas hasn’t left him. When he describes making a dance, he does so not only in kinetic terms but through the prism of painting: “I’m reacting to the effect the music has on me and making that visual by painting the space and the time that the music is occupying,” he said recently over lunch at a cafe near his Chelsea apartment He has been painting with bodies for 50 years now, a milestone that he is celebrating with a weeklong run at the Joyce, beginning April 17. The dances on view date back to his “Brahms Symphony,” from 1985, a work he considers a watershed in his career. It vividly embodies the two qualities for which he has come to be known: lush musicality and unabashed emotionalism. (It will be performed by dancers from George Mason University, for whom he restaged it earlier this year.) For his own company, he has created a new dance, “Something About Night,” which contains passages from previous works, many of them forgotten.

    National Folk Song and Dance Ensemble Mazowsze https://www.mazowsze.waw.pl/en/news/666,Report-from-the-Family-Picnic-with-Mazowsze.html 2021-10-04, 08:48 Report from the Family Picnic with Mazowsze - thank you that you were with us! The open-air picnic with Mazowsze at Karolin, introducing the summer, is already over. The ensemble presented several shows for to the audience – concerts of various kinds of music: folk, classical, pop, and film music, for example from James Bond movies and Pirates of the Caribbean. The audience saw Mazowsze's soloists, choir, and orchestra, but also several guests. Among them, there were the renowned opera and operetta singers Dorota Laskowiecka and Adam Sobierajski, who sang for example “O mio babbino caro” from the opera Gianni Schicchi, “Nessun dorma” from Turandot, and the operetta fan favorite duet of Silva and Edwin from the operetta Die Csárdásfürstin [The Csardas Princess or The Riviera Girl]. The young, internationally renowned and awarded bass-baritone Łukasz Karauda, also presented opera repertoire on the stage. The singer, who has recently also become Mazowsze's soloist, sang “The Toreador Song” from Georges Bizet's opera Carmen. The concerts were conducted by Jacek Boniecki, Wojciech Gwiszcz, and Klemens Starybrat. It was a very special opportunity to listen to them, as each of them creates his own particular sound with the ensemble's orchestra. Mazowsze however, is not only music and singing – there is also dancing, performed by the ensemble's ballet. The program included pieces that allowed the dancers to show their versatility. There were the Polish national and regional dances Mazowsze is famous for, but also the classic tango (solo by Kamila Borowska and Adam Czechlewski) and waltz (solo by Dorota Rak and Marcos De Lima).Mazowsze 's performance wasn't the only occasion to see dance: there were also presentations prepared by the participants of the “Dancing with Mazowsze” workshops, and the performance prepared by the Folk Dance Ensemble “Pruszkowiacy”.
