Love, what else can one say? Love and gratitude for ever and ever, to Merce, to Robert for having the spirit and strengh to keep the work alive, to Trisha same, and all the company dancers and teachers, before and after who contribute to the ever ending legacy
training in basic movements, even at professional level, is quite common. otherwise the profs tend to lose the basics. (that's what my company teacher told me)
Ha!, I was one of your feckless students years ago in NJ and wow must have been frustrating as can be for you. Now, I can really appreciate the Cunningham technique and what you are doing to carry it on.
I love the Cunningham technique very much. It is very close to the Danamos principle (dance.art.master.system - seven basic movement of the human body-founded by Martin Puttke), which focuses exclusively on the basic elements of the human movement, without any content oder aesthetic interpretation. The impression of freedom and bond only arises from the organic flow auf the whole movement complexity.
We are releasing music written for contemporary technique class - very suitable for Cunningham/Graham. So far there are 175 instrumental tracks arranged by count and tempo. See our channel for more info.
You can find classes on our Instagram account @MerceTrust or take them in New York City. Write to info@mercecunningham.org for information about classes in Argentina. Thanks for your interest!
I believe Graham was more about contraction and release. Merce does that but I felt like he concentrated on shapes. Also separating dance and music/emotion.
I wanna know what function has dancing in this beautiful ugly world i wanna hear your opinions. How dancing can go beyong being pretty-sensitive and beyond presentations? I would love to articulate something
Cependant, attention DANGER, avec les à-coups, au niveau neuro-musculaire, les interruptions d'ordre saccadées entrainent des micros-lésion musculaires irréversibles, mais indolores au début, pendant longtemps. Le muscle lésé forme du collagène de réparation et perd ainsi toute son élasticité et souplesse. Il faut exécuter le même mouvement mais EN CONTINUITÉ ! Idem avec la technique Graham. ________________________________ However, be careful DANGER, with jolts, at the neuromuscular level, jerky order interruptions lead to irreversible, but painless muscle microlesions at first, for a long time. The injured muscle forms repair collagen and thus loses all its elasticity and flexibility. The same movement must be performed but IN CONTINUITY! Same with the Graham technique.
PARA QUIEN NO SABE DEL ARCOIRIS DE POSIBILIDADES MUSICALES, ENTENDIBLE…. SEGURO QUE EL GOSPEL Y EL SYDECO, IGUAL ESTÁN FUERA DE SU REDUCIDO ALCANCE DE CONCEPTO MUSICAL…
Just the Kmart version of what classical class can give you. I have studied all genres and danced a professional for 30 years. This is a waste of time.
Robert Kelly, I’m sorry, but Company class for the Cunningham company can never be a waste of time. I’m not sure what you mean by classical class, but I think you mean ballet, but ballet cannot teach you to do this material alone. I’m calling B.S. If. You don't know the most celebrated modern dance company...we can't believe you.
I have a hard time believing what you say your credentials are when 1) you are calling a class "classical" ... I've danced my whole life in a variety of places and have never heard that terminology. LOL 2) If you were a dance professional I don't think you would disrespect any form, style, or technique as all are beneficial and anyone who has seriously studied dance would agree. 3) I have studied ballet for years and for my body type I find Cunningham to be a better alternative to get stronger.

I love how they still train with the basic fundamental footwork even though they're definitely more advanced than my primary school ballet classes 🤣

What is the difference with graham technique? I found them pretty similar! Thank you
A little similar !

heavy breathing
The same as in Paris; intellectually and mathematically very interesting, but no joie de vivre.
Капец!

Robert Kelly right on.
No type of movement is a waste of time.
