CID Seminar DANCING THE HYMNS N° 1
DANCING THE HYMNS is part of the Christian dimension of our “Dance and Spirituality” program. Having noted the virtual absence of choreographies on the rich heritage of Christian music and poetry both at the level of churches and at the level of Western art, the CID encourages its artists to create them.
An important event in this direction took place on November 19 and 20 in the city of Autun within the “Festival of Beauty”. Our artists danced various hymns from various eras for an hour and a half in the cathedral. They also danced the next day during the mass presided by Mgr Rivière, Bishop of Autun.
We are therefore pleased to present excerpts from certain choreographies with comments from their choreographers/performers.
