Concert Review: Collaboration Concert
COLLABORATION CONCERT
Collaboration dance pieces are always a joy to watch, especially when the performers dance as if it was their last performance. On December 11, 2013, I had a chance to witness the Collaboration Concert of the dance departments of the two phenomenal schools of Cass Technical High School and Renaissance High School. And may I state, both schools brought the talent that resembles that of professionals. The concert involved thirteen performances of the young, but talented dancers. Renaissance Dance Workshop, Cass Tech Dance Workshop, Renaissance Dance 5, Cass Tech Dance 5, and Cass Tech Dance 3 performed. Renaissance Dance Workshop danced to five pieces. These pieces included: Statement Made, Silent Echo, Let’s Get Busy, Transparent, and Disordered Links. Statement Made was choreographed by Zandria Lucas. Music was by Frahm and Muller. This piece was pure genius in my opinion, it was …show more content…
choreographed quite nicely and the music went along with piece perfectly. The title most definitely fits the emotions given off by the dancers in this piece.
Silent Echo was choreographed by Ciera Smith.
The music was by The Weekend. I really enjoyed this performance. The performance was chilling, I could really convey that the dancers put their absolute all in this performance. As the dancers danced I felt as they were telling the story that the artist of the song was telling. This performance was one of my favorites of the night. Disordered Links was choreographed by Demetrius Shields and the music was by Kramer and the Machine. This performance was a mixture of hip-hop style and modern style. This performance was also thought-provoking, meaning my only focus was that stage in which the dancers resided. Renaissance Dance 5 performed one performance and to be completely honest this performance alone, had me wanting more from this particular group. The best part of the performance was the energy that dances exhilarated the audience the whole performance. The choreography was created by Shanelle Napolean. Music was by Delta Ray, which foreshadows the title of the piece which was, Delta
Deep.
Cass Tech Workshop also prepared five pieces for the concert. These pieces included: Changing Lanes, Spain, A Love Affair With Dance, The Will of These Hands, Empathy. Changing Lanes was choreographed by Edgar L. Page. However, the music was unknown. This dance was awesome in many ways. One of them is the energy that the dancers had, and the facial expressions of the dancers. A Love Affair With Dance was most definitely captivating in my opinion. I could not take my eyes off of the dancer that performed this piece. The skill and involvedness in this dance made it one of my favorite dances of the night. The Collaboration Concert was a wonderful event. I enjoyed the performances by far. It was a learning experience, considering that I am a dancer. Therefore, the performance allowed me to take notes about big and little things that the dancers did. In conclusion, I believe that this Collaboration Concert was a benefit to my future dance goals and also a learning experience in which I will not forget.
