 Last night, myself, Peter, Cheri, and Cheri's daughter, Katie, saw the Pilobolus Dance Theatre with the Saint Lawrence String Quartet. It is always a special treat to have a modern dance company accompanied by live music. The SLSQ is quite good - although, after having seen the Emerson String Quartet three weeks ago, I have to say it is so clear that the Emerson is the best string quartet in the world. The difference was startling.
Anyhoo, overall last night's performance was good but not fabulous.
Except, for the second piece: Symbiosis. A stunning intertwined duet of movement, strength, equality, and complemented differences, that with Paul Taylor's Eventide, are the two richest and most mature depictions I've ever seen of the complex relationship between men and women.
