Ad Hoc community dance with choreographer Ruth Jones & bassoonist Luke Crookes, responding to the Art in The Whitworth Gallery park. We explored earthy slabs, faceless statues, trees, frames and Inca inspired sculptures.
A note about the music:
The main aim was to be present with the performers in the essence of the ‘now’ rather than accompanying them in a traditional music performance sense. The vocal and bassoon sounds made are specifically produced in a guttural way try to inspire embodied sounds.
AD HOC DANCE 25th ANNIVERSARY PROJECT NO 2:
