As a prelude to the Department of Dance’s restaging of Paul Taylor’s Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rehearsal) at the Power Center (Feb 4-7, 2010), a panel of three dance-music presenters will examine Igor Stravinsky’s contribution to 20th-century performance. The first speaker, Professor Stephen Rush, will consider The Radicalism of Stravinsky’s Music. Professor Christian Matjias will then focus on The Evolution of Le Sacre from Enfant to Etude; and in the final presentation, Professor Angela Kane will discuss Paul Taylor’s re-envisioning of Le Sacre as a modern-day American morality tale. This colloquium and the forthcoming performances of Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rehearsal) have been made possible by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts
