Tuesday February 14th to Friday February 17th 2012 | The Creation choreographed by Nanni KlokePresented by Judy King and Lorraine PrattThe Creation is a work choreographed by Nanni Kloke. The text of Genesis – chapter 1 gave Nanni the inspiration for her beautiful choreographies. The music is almost all classical and offers a range of mood, tempo and emotion. The fifteen dances in this work are related to different verses of the Scripture. It is always a very moving experience to work together on a theme over a long weekend. Individually these dances are very special but when they are brought together and danced without interruption, something very special indeed happens. Judy and Lorraine will be working together to deepen your experience of this wonderful piece of work. Judy will be teaching the dances while Lorraine will explore what the writers were trying to communicate and discover in other ways our response to the wonders of our world. We will learn the dances based in Durham High School and then go to dance in Durham Cathedral on Friday afternoon. The Cathedral remains open to the public while we are dancing and so please be aware that there may be some spectators while we dance The Creation Cycle. Lunches and suppers are provided and catered for by our cook, Frances. Teas and coffees are also provided, but if you have a favourite tea bag and mug, then please do bring it. You need to arrange your own accommodation. *) Cost: £215 per person (this includes all tuition food. It does NOT include your accommodation or any CDs that you may buy). *) Times: The workshop begins in Durham High School at 3.30 p.m. on the Tuesday and finishes on Friday in Durham Cathedral by3.30 p.m. *) Booking: Please book with a £50 non-returnable deposit to Judy |
