This isn't just any contemporary choreography though, it has a lot of Aboriginal culture behind it. I don't know if you've seen the dancing of Australian Aboriginals, but this pays homage to that and does it well.

Really bad orchestral performance of the Rite. Sounds like a MIDI synthesiser.

[MyCurrie]

love this!! my passion is dancing!!

[RogueRotting360]

The women should be on average, not the men.

Also it's really poor recording of the piece. Sounds like a MIDI file.

The Rite can be anything you want it to be... Why not feminine???

[gutodru]

Is it the Rite of Sping? Because it looks like very much with the Pina Bausch coreography about this piece.

[RogueRotting360]

The male dancers are too effeminate, doesn't work with the The Rite - which is very heterosexual piece.

I expected more ...

Good music, good stage settings,good technical dancers... Bad choregraphy!!! Check Alvin Ailey and Martha Graham group dancing and formations!!!
