Jacob’s Pillow 

I was in the scholarship program in 1981. After the auditions in NYC we arrived at the Pillow a week before the program started to prepare the quarters and studios for the season. We were doing all sorts of work: from roof repair to polishing the mirrors in the studios. It felt very much in the spirit of Ted Shawn and his group. The program was very diverse, exposing me to artists like the Kathakali Indian Dance, Lar Lubovitch, Jelom Viera Dance Brazil, and many others. I studied with Manuel Alum, whose company I eventually joined, Igal Perry who created a piece for the Pillow Dancers I danced – eventually a picture from it was featured in the 1982 season poster, with Bill Irwin who helped me polish a pantomime piece in the outside stage, and, very dear to my heart, had my first period of studying choreography with Bessie Schonberg. My first choreographic experiment was at the request of Liz Thompson, the Artistic Director at he time, for the fund-raiser event that year. This was the impulse that set me in course for my professional career. Today 30 years later of uninterrupted work I am a choreographer working at the Opera Houses in Germany creating 3 to 4 major productions a years, plus smaller Tanztheater works and being active in the boards various dance community organisations and festivals. I can only thank the wide and intensive exposure I had to different styles and practices that enabled me to manoeuvre with confidence and fulfill my assignments. This is only possible with the support from organisations and individuals that enable the Scholarship Program. Thank you.

 

The Wild Party 

Dear Ricardo, so nice to hear, thank you so much!!! And best wishes for your birthday, even if I am late. Thank you so much for your wonderful work!!! I can clearly see that everything you taught us makes people a bit brighter and shining and it helps them to see how beautiful dancing can be. Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher and choreographer! Lots of greetings and best wishes, hoping to have you again as a teacher one day soon, Simone
