Three by Ohad Naharin, Batsheva Dance Company

[xxxxxCATHYxxxx]

This dance has a lot of of abstract movements that make it unique. The dancers are very flexible and use that flexibility to create very interesting movements. I also noticed that they have a lot duets within the dance and every movement of their upper body goes with the beat of the music. <33

[LeelaMiza]

One song is AGF- Private birds and the other song near the end is AGF- YouStop <3

[scraspen]

[Skymaker69]

Very good! Maybe too good for Youtube.

[poekie86]

is this the gaga style?

[ianboonmusic]

yawn yawn yawn

[SummonInThunder]

There seems to be a neverending suply of fantastic israli coreographers. Anyone see Jasmin Vardimon's "Yesterday" erlier this year?

It blew my mind!

[wownouser]

I'm fed up with these eratic movements of Batsheva chreography which you see in so many other modern dance groups. How aout returning to old school, esthetic dance. Any chance of that?

[dangerouslorraines]

very cool! i imagine that many with an american mentality may not appreciate!

[hpmotion49]

as an American dancer, I'm dying to know what the "American mentality" is....?

[dangerouslorraines]

Linear (in physical line as well as story line and choreographic progression), pretty, flashy, mainstream, organized, predictable, comfortable

...i'm an american dancer/choreographer as well...i love this work and often find that many of the funders, students, presenters and audience members that i am in contact with don't appreciate or desire to see this kind of work/movement

[dangerouslorraines]

Linear (in form and content/storyline), literal, pretty, organized, flashy...

I am an American dancer/choreographer as well and I find that many of the students, funders, general public, etc., that I come in contact with aren't really interested in (or appreciative of) this kind of movement.

Nice work on your page by the way...

[hpmotion49]

Thanks so much for the compliment.

I guess I've been living in the NYC downtown modern dance seen for awhile now, because this movement seems pretty literal, organized, and flashy to me :)

I just saw Batsheva preform, "Max" at BAM - they are all compelling movers, they were received with a standing ovation.

[200311336]

not very graceful...isolated...arrogant­

[punkkidjustin2]

I don't agree. But I understand that not everyone holds the same aesthetic in dance. However I don't think that dance has to be graceful at all. Arrogance and isolation are also very beautiful ideas to present in dance. I see this as a piece filled with different ideas and I loved this clip. It's difficult to find choreography that stands out and shows a new approach on how to manipulate bodies so kudos :) It's a new age of dance so let's get with it!

[bittersweet764]

ok heres what was on the program

"Bellus"- J.S. Bach, Goldberg Variations, performed by Glenn Gould

"Humus"-Brian Eno, Neroli

"Secus" (this clip) - Chari Chari, Kid 606 + Rayon (mix: Stefan Ferry), AGF, Fennesz, Kaho Naa Pyar Hai, Seefeel, and the Beach Boys

[rmatherr]

I saw this performed last night in Minneapolis, MN at the Northrop Auditorium, and it is the most amazing, beautiful thing I have seen in my entire life. Makes me hungry for more Batsheva!

[yapper1200]

i have the same problem as frukling. anybody who knows the song names please reply! especially for the first song. really cool show btw

[abdjod2004]

utter waste of time and money

[cscreme]

care to elaborate?

[abdjod2004]

- the song is annoying

- the choreography sucks ass

- the outfits looks very stupid and cheap

- the chicks are ugly

hmm... what else? yeah... they are Israelis

they should've been busier killing civilians than dancing like retards!!

[134267847]

my favorite part of the song is "get up, get up, ay?" haha :]

[italsportkit]

I have see tonight in London, pure paradise, i loved so much, very martha graham in the future, loved. Number one.

[richardilet]

Chapeau ! Un bonjour et bisous a Caroline de la part d,un vendeur de the. Ca me donne envie de venir vous voire, je vais essayer. Bises

[frukling]

the program for this amazing piece only listed the artists of the music for Secus, not song names, does anybody know any of the titles? ta.

[jaxxper]

Greetings from mexico! Go working

[iMogenPatchi]

It's so refreshing to see a choreographer who isn't afraid of stillness. Love it!!
