Film, Dance, Dictionary of Desire

November 20, 2014 by cturocy

Hampson

Thomas Hampson, baritone

Film Documentary to be aired in Germany

Link to European Broadcast Information

Just received this word from director, Jason Starr.  This is the film Catherine Turocy worked on as Production Designer and movement director:

“Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde will have its broadcast premiere next weekend on 3sat.   It will be aired at 8:15 on Saturday evening, the 22nd of November.   The name of the film is Überall und ewig – Mahlers Das Lied von der Erde.   In addition to the usual documentary techniques (interviews, archival material, performance clips) I created short dramatizations for each song aimed to stimulate interest in this unlikely yet mesmerizing combination of a fin de siècle Viennese symphonic style with 8th century Chinese poetry—the two creative worlds at the heart of this symphony.  What’s also satisfying is that 3sat will immediately follow the one-hour documentary with a re-broadcast of the complete concert film I directed of Das Lied von der Erde.  This was the 2012 inaugural performance for Neeme Järvi as music director of Orchestre de la Suisse Romande.  It features baritone Thomas Hampson and tenor Paul Groves.  “

Dance of the Month Coming on Saturday, December 6th  and January 3rd with Meggi Sweeney Smith

December 6: The Simple to Complex Bourree   3-5pm
 Come join us for an introduction to the basic Baroque dance steps of the bouree as we learn the opening figure of La Savoye (1709). The second portion of class will play with these steps, their development, and beautiful spatial patterns, as they appear in Rameau’s notation of the magnificent couple dance La Royalle.
 
January 3:  The Tumultuous  Tambourin      3-5pm 
 A lively duple-meter dance of Provençal origin, the tambourin  was often found on the French stage during the eighteenth century. Looking specifically at Rameau’s vibrant examples, we will explore the elements and character of the tambourin as a delightful group dance.

Where: Mark Morris Dance Center at 3 Lafayette Avenue in Brooklyn, New York (corner of Flatbush Ave).  www.markmorrisdancegroup.org/schoollocate.cfm.

Cost: only $16 per class!

Summer Workshop, Hold the Dates: August 20-25, 2015 in Santa Barbara, California

Special Guest, Alan Jones, author of Dictionnaire du desir de la bonne chere,  will share his knowledge in food, dance and music from the first French cookbook of 1738. Click below to see what Julia Child has to say about the cookbook
