WIDOW'S WALK
WIDOW'S WALK (2011) – 15 mins
Music: Phil Kline, Lennie Tristano performed by ETHEL Widow’s Walk takes its name from an architectural feature that frequently appears on 19th century roofs along the New England coast where, according to a romantic myth, wives of mariners would watch for ships at sea, and, often in vain, would await the return of their loved ones. A powerful narrative of community, love, and loss. “Dušan Týnek [is a] fine craftsman - expert at melding choreographic structure, movement, and spatial design to imply feeling and relationships ... chooses excellent music and uses it well” - Village Voice Commissioned and originally performed by Marymount Manhattan College. |
