Dance

“Dancing Beyond the Minor Set”.

In this workshop, Louise will present a series of lively dances from the early 18th to the early 21st century that share one notable feature: the choreography takes dancers away from, and then back to, their minor set within the dance. Combining conceptual challenges with uniquely delightful patterns, we’ll enjoy the dances for their own sake while exploring their origins in history, reconstruction choices, and cross-cultural borrowings.
