This dancer from Bandung combines the traditional Sundanese dance style with other (contemporary) styles like Breakdance, Moonwalk and Pencak Sila. This video is made while he was on tour with the group Kesenian Jawa Barat in Europe. This group is well connected to the famous Jugala studio. I have not yet been able to trace the name of the fantastic female dancer. However, enjoy this video!!
Videorecording by Nana Budiman (Sundanese name for Ronald Bergman).

In this segment -- oh my god -- my chorus and I got to accompany Tori on an acoustic guitar based live version of Father's Son. We were disappointed at first that there would be no piano, but I spent some time the night before practicing a few of her new songs on the guitar, just in case I could get her to sing something. And things worked out -- perhaps even better this way. How often do we get to hear Tori singing without piano accompaniment?

Here she teaches the chorus and sings with them on her new song, Father's Son. It was UNREAL, SURREAL, ETC.!!! MY CHORUS GOT TO SING WITH TORI!

Anyway, Father's Son is off Tori's new album American Doll Posse which features:

Yo George (Isabel) - 1:25
Big Wheel (Tori) - 3:15

Yesterday 5-4-07, was THE experience of a lifetime! Christmas came early in 2007, that's for sure! Here's the story. After seeing PS22's 5th grade chorus Tori-cover videos sent to Amos' P.R. peeps by Undented.com, Sony contacted us and invited us to sing for and with Tori!!

Here's Pt. 1. The kids sang Dragon and....... THEY BROUGHT TORI TO TEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE: This video has gone on to become one of the most viewed Tori Amos videos on YouTube, and garnered the PS22 Chorus much attention, including write-ups in USA Today, The New York Daily News, the VH1 blog, and probably most notably on the Perez Hilton blog. Perez, the ultra-hilarious gossip blogger turned TV personality, is featuring Tori Amos in his upcoming VH1 DIVAS special that includes (among others) Gloria Estefan, Pink, Janet Jackson, Jill Scott, Mary J. Blige, and Chaka Khan!
