Excerto from "The Traitor" - Finale
From: VAI DVD 4224 José Limón: Three Modern Dance Classics
Music by Gunther Schuller (1955)
"The Traitor was Limón's response to the McCarthy hearings and the climate of betrayal that haunted the arts and entertainment fields during this period. Against a music score of violence, passion and tenderness (by Gunther Schuller), the tragedy of Judas is portrayed as if it were taking place in modern times."

  • UN DIA COMO HOY 12 DE ENERO NACIO

    1908: José Limón, bailarín, maestro y coreógrafo mexicano (f. 1972).

    (José Arcadio Limón Traslaviña (Culiacán, Sinaloa, 12 de enero de 1908 - Flemington, Nueva Jersey, 2 de diciembre de 1972), fue un bailarín, maestro de danza y coreógrafo mexicano-estadounidense. Es considerado el precursor de la danza moderna, además de iniciador de las técnicas coreográficas que aún hoy se siguen y de que fue el primero en resaltar el rol masculino )
