Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company Rehearsing Ravel

We asked Bill and the Company if we could sit in their rehearsal for Ravel a few weeks ago, and here’s what we captured. The mood in the room was focused with a lot to learn.  There were light moments, like when the dancers rehearsed a particular movement and yelled out its nickname, “Chinese toy! Chinese toy!” (not captured on video) as well as physically demanding scenarios such as Jen learning the turning leap.

The company is currently in residence with SITI Company at Skidmore College to work on their upcoming collaboration on the Rite of Spring.
