Dancing with Merce Cunningham is a buoyant, captivating memoir of a talented dancer's lifelong friendship with one of the choreographic geniuses of our time. Marianne Preger-Simon's story begins amid the explosion of artistic creativity that followed World War II. While immersed in the vibrant arts scene of postwar Paris during a college year abroad, Preger-Simon was so struck by the unconventional dance style of choreographer Merce Cunningham that she joined his classes in New York. She soon became an important member of his brand new dance troupe-and a constant friend. Through her experiences in the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, Preger-Simon offers a rare account of exactly how Cunningham taught and interacted with his students. She describes the puzzled reactions of audiences to the novel non-narrative choreography of the company's debut performances. She also portrays the relationships among the company's dancers, designers, and musicians, many of whom-including John Cage, David Tudor, and Carolyn Brown-would become integral to the avant-garde arts movement, telling tales of their adventures and conversations touring in a VW Microbus across the United States. Finally, reflecting on her connection with Cunningham throughout the latter part of his career, Preger-Simon recalls warm moments that continued to characterize their enduring friendship. Her memoir is an intimate look at the early years of one of the most influential companies in modern American dance and the brilliance of its visionary leader.Binding Type: Paperback

This item was NOT new as advertised!
This was given as a father day gift. When we opened it the clear film on the back had lint entangled in the sticky residue, the leather band had marks on it as if someone was adjusting it to their wrist size and the big one….the watch was doused absolutely doused in cologne. It’s clear that someone purchased before me, wore it or an event(s) then returned the watch. Tissot or Amazon: how can you make this right? I bought it and paid for “new” pricing and clearly was “not new”
Quality control??
