Synopsis |
The five works which comprised the Fleeting Moments season embodied theme
of impermanence and fragility – not only of the dance work itself, but also of time and space, love and life. Graeme Collins’ Fragmented Dialogues (零散的對話) played counterpoint to Maurice Ravel’s Piano Concerto for Left Hand in G Major, while Boundless Grasslands (遼闊草原) gave contemporary voice to fast-disappearing Mongolian folk traditions and dance forms. Featuring the totemic Wolf Dance, the work was choreographed by Professor Zhang Lin-ping. Jaime Redfern’s Loss Illuminates (消失的光采) posed questions about memory, existence and being human, while John Utans’ if these walls could talk…. (如果圍牆會說話……) explored notions of reality and the imagined, of what is true and what is false. Raewyn Hill focused on love and loss in Vespers (晚禱). Based loosely on the Seven Sorrows of the Virgin Mary, the work was set to a specially commissioned score by New Zealand composer David Long. |
