Modern Dance - A Gala of New Choreographies

Macao Conservatory

Sunday, March 14, 2004 20:00     Macao Cultural Centre Grand Auditorium    

For this year’s Macao Arts Festival, the Macao Conservatory has drawn on its store of talent and creativity to produce more than ten completely new programmes. Bold and extravagant, the ballet The Spanish Girl is a work that is brazen and unrestrained in form. Meng-Hui is a soul-stirring dance. The Chinese dances, Yellow Children, Bold Strokes, Competition and The Reflections of the Moon on Erquan Spring, express typical Chinese emotions and draw on the profound stores of Chinese culture. The choreography class students also take an audacious step, introducing novel material and concepts with pluck and panache in dances such as Encounter with Alice 2004, 1≠1, Mother-Daughter and The Rhythm of Colour. The entire programme brims with youth and vitality.
