The Many Deaths of Edward Gorey, 4th movement

This is the 1st of a 4 movement work entitled "The Many Deaths of Edward Gorey." The original music for the piece was created by three people, Evan Bivins, Bill Carson and Nathan Koci.

Thank you!

This is a wonderful performance. Edward Gorey couldn't have done it better himself.

I really love this. The choreography completely captures Edward Gorey's cheeky sense of morbidness. Wonderful
