About this item

Product Description Dance Vivaldi, A Contemporary Baroque Ballet infuses traditional French Baroque dance with modern concepts. Set to Vivaldi s Four Seasons, this recorded live performance dissolves the boundaries between past and present. Blending a historically delicate technique with the vibrant motion of contemporary dance vocabulary, the dancers create a unique expression both traditional and new. Dance Vivaldi, A Contemporary Baroque Ballet depicts a performance style not usually seen by the American public. It was created by Marie-Geneviève Massé, a French choreographer with an intimate depth of understanding of this music and dance vocabulary. With her mastery of the Baroque movement vocabulary, she infuses this work with perfectly balanced modernity. Review DANCE VIVALDI, choreographed by Marie Genevieve Masse, is a haunting neoclassical ballet reminiscent of Balanchine's early works. The abstraction of traditional 18th century dance phrases mixed with the fire and passion of Vivaldi's music is highly inventive. --Catherine Turocy, Artistic Director of The New York Baroque Dance Company and Chevalier de l'Ordres des Arts et des Lettres since 1995 The DVD menu is a basic one, that follows the music: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. I returned to all four more than once, pondering what Baroque movement means in 2007, and how it resonates in today's world... --Kaija Pepper, DANCE INTERNATIONAL
