 Re: Tomorrow- Wednesday 5-29 is Le Sacre 100th

When I was in Princeton Ballet in the late 70's, we had to perform it. It almost caused a riot among the dancers, because the thing is almost impossible to count. I resorted in some spots to counting up to something like 20 if I recall, and this is the way it was taught to the dancers originally too. I hated the feel on my body and how difficult and clumsy it felt. I was not alone. We performed it once and that was too much. No dancer should have to count to 20. Ballet music should either be in 2's, 3"s and 4"s because we don't have scores in front of us and all cues should be telegraphed and easy to hear without having to count maniacally in our heads.
