Longy’s performance are free and open to the public, but please register in advance.
Dance and music are inherently intertwined. This performance from Longy’s project-based learning students explores the relationship between the two disciplines and the interplay between them.
All of the pieces on this afternoon’s program are in some way connected with dance. For some, dance and song were clearly meant to go together; for others, the connection is more haphazard: a newly-made dance that uses the music of an existing song tune, or a new text set to a well-known dance tune. In some cases it’s impossible to know which came first, the song or the dance.
