 The Koresh Dance Company and School
“Contemporary in style and sophisticated in technique, the Koresh Dance Company specialized in drastic momentary contrasts: feel good audience-courting versus dance for its own sake; balletic limb driven action versus modernist torso moves; restless extremes of high and low, slow and fast, introspection and display.”
“Koresh Dance Company earned a standing ovation for a polished performance...their synergy was at its best when they performed as an ensemble.
“If you like your dancing hard, fast and intense, the Koresh Dance Company is for you...liquidly sensual...clean, expressive gestures...imparting a richness of movement to the events on stage...there’s a sheer physical joy to this allegrismo execution...”

 Guardian Modernity warps ritual
Under the direction of Stephen Page, the intention of this 10-year-old Australian company is to show that the culture of this ancient indigenous people is a living thing, adapting to the restless demands of a modern nation.
If you were to imagine a performance by an Aboriginal dance company odds on it would kick off with the primeval throb of the didjeridoo and feature a face-painted mystic man wearing next to no kit.
While his dancers are interpreting their own folklore the movement has an intensity and grace that shreds any notion of out-datedness.

 The Company - Prior Repertory
Choreographer María Rovira's highly physical movement vocabulary, along with the music and dance traditions of her native Spain, create a restless portrait of contemporary life, in which we often find ourselves in a strange environment, a neutral territory, a "tierra de nadie."
Tierra De Nadie was commissioned by the American Dance Festival with funding from Philip Morris Companies Inc. and The Rockefeller Foundation.
This production of Tierra De Nadie was made possible, in part, by a grant from Philip Morris Companies Inc. to Ballet Hispanico's 25th Anniversary Production Fund.

Among their collaborators are The Margaret Jenkins Dance Company, Kronos String Quartet, Terry Riley, John Zorn, Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser, Richard Teitelbaum and David Rosenbloom, Lawrence "Butch" Morris, Anthony Braxton, Alvin Curran, and the martial arts drum troupe San Francisco Taiko Dojo.
It is in such a restless, expansive, but intensely focused musical partnership as Rova that the sounds of the 21st century are prefigured.
The Rova Saxophone Quartet was founded in late 1977 by Jon Raskin, Larry Ochs, Andrew Voigt, and Bruce Ackley for the occasion of a special festival appearance at Mills College in Oakland, California.

 Guardian Unlimited The Guardian On the Rambert Dance Company
By 1935 it had been named Ballet Rambert and by 1987 it had become Rambert Dance Company, which means that when the company celebrates its 75th anniversary next week it does so as Britain's oldest surviving dance institution.
Yet though he talks about technology with a breathless speed and though his clothes are an intimidatingly current compilation of labels and trends, McGregor's restless body moves around a serene, dancerly centre of gravity and he displays a sweetly old-fashioned enthusiasm for his chosen art form.
He raves too about the technique of the Rambert dancers, whose expertise in such a wide range of styles allows him to indulge his current fascination with "exploring the interface between classical and modern dance".

 MPR Music - Domick Argento: Minnesota Romantic
The Guthrie provided the stage for that company's 1964 debut with Argento's The Masque of Angels, a one-act opera, full of pageantry and dance, about a band of restless angels who occupy an empty church.
Argento shrugs off the label "conservative" and is weary of comparisons with Benjamin Britten, in whom many critics find a similar lyricism, refined sense of language, and consummate craft.
Before long, Argento himself was immersed in the new theater, collaborating with Sir Tyrone Guthrie and Douglas Campbell in such memorable productions as The House of Atreus and The Shoemaker's Holiday, and adding to the cultural scene by cofounding the boldly contemporary Center Opera, which was destined to evolve into the Minnesota Opera.

 Karole Armitage - Paul Taylor - New York Magazine Dance Review
Both these new works are cartoon visions of control and rebellion, power and punishment—Taylor’s own wry view, perhaps, of half a century running a dance company.
Taylor’s genius hardly needs confirming, but if he can tame the restless partygoers on a benefit night, clearly he can do anything.
The other New York premiere was In the Beginning, which has more clarity and wit but certainly doesn’t leave you with the sense that Taylor has a whole lot to say about Genesis.

 THE KING IS BACK, FORCEFULLY (NO, NOT THAT ONE!)
King speaks to the eclectic younger generation; his vision is of 21st-century dance having many and often distant influences, expanding the proverbial envelope.
King's moves are quick, complex and staccato, with every limb constantly turning, churning and thrusting in a restless space of wilful turbulence.
A Coleman Hawkins tribute showed off the company veteran Chiharu Shibata in the night's most balletic moves, opposite Credell, when seen April 9.
