Paul Taylor Dance Company - CampanyB/Roses/Promethean Fire

Work:: Paul Taylor Dance Company (S0297458495)

Celebrating its 45th Anniversary in 2000, Paul Taylor Dance Company continues to combine the classical and the contemporary, presenting some of the most exciting and accessible performances in the history of dance.

Production:: CampanyB/Roses/Promethean Fire (T02012811664)

Company B, Paul Taylor’s seminal piece of Americana, recalling the turbulent years of the 1940s. The nation lindys, jitterbugs and polkas to the Andrews Sisters and in sharp contrast a generation is drawn into the hell of the Second World War. With its spirited can-can dances. Roses, a gorgeously romantic piece set to Wagner’s Siegfried Idyll and Heinrich Baermann’s Adagio for Clarinet and Strings. Promethean Fire examines a kaleidoscope of human emotions. Breathtaking waves of dancers in black velvet perform to Leopold Stokowski’s striking orchestrations of pieces by Bach.
