On a rainy April night 2009, The Juilliard Club hosted the Young
Patrons of Lincoln Center (YPLC) and its members for "Modern Dance 101"
with Juilliard faculty member Henning Rübsam in the amazing new Glorya
Kaufman Dance and Rehearsal Studio that overlooks Broadway. It was a great
introduction to the modern American dance tradition, its roots and
founders, repeat with technique and movement demonstrations by
Juilliard dance students and capped off with an elegant hybrid
ballet/modern dance set to JS Bach. A great time in a great space gave me a chance to catch up with old friends and make some new ones as well.Relevant links:
