Fan Dance (1978) by Andy de Groat

11/16/2013

 
Fan DanceFan Dance at the Centre Pompidou 1981, by Colette Masson
Andy de Groat's Fan Dance was originally choreographed in 1978 for St Mark's Church and featured an original score by my father, Michael Galasso. I have had the pleasure of coordinating and running rehearsals for this 5-minute gem of a piece over the past few weeks, thanks to an invitation from a young curator, Benjamin Kimitch.
