Join Lori Belilove & The Isadora Duncan Dance Company for an intimate Valentines’ Salon Performance featuring live accompaniment by pianist Jeremy Chan, mouthwatering foods, bubbly, and Isadora's suite of Chopin, Schubert, and Brahms' Waltzes.
Programming will include performances by Lori Belilove and Company Dancers: Emily D'Angelo, Samuel Humphreys, Nikki Poulos, Samantha Mercado, Hayley Rose, Diana Uribe, Caroline Yamada and fresh faces from our Apprenticeship Program.
“1912 was the year Isadora Duncan fell in love with the director and scenic designer E. Gordon Craig,” explains Belilove. “They were two villains of creativity who bounced off each other’s energy and ideas. The dances we’ll be performing go up to 1918 and no further—that would be a different show altogether! We have the Schubert, which is very lyrical, childlike and whimsical. With Chopin, there’s more sensuality and a rich crescendo at the end—like the bourgeoning sexuality of an ingénue. And then there’s Brahms, all dark and shadowy with bursts of light that cut through pain. There’s a quality of searching. Duncan was always searching for an earth and a sky and what her place was in it. She was constantly establishing and reestablishing her being. We all have a yin and yang, and Duncan allows us to tap into that and pull ourselves one way or the other depending on the dance, the mood, and the moment.”
"These terpsichoreans frolic in an atmosphere of courtship, camaraderie, and connectedness—demure, old-world charm." - Haas Regen
