Published in April 2010 by Land NRW – Abteilung Kultur, this is a study by Sinus Sociovision GmbH of the social positioning of immigrants in Germany today. It features a large amount of pictures of the production QuaaDriDuuo, even thou it doesn’t talk about it at all.
It intends to be free from preconceptions and cliches. The study delivers a great amount graphical statistics making it a basic instrument for decision making. It has a strong focus on the cultural production of immigrants in Germany or as the officially correct term defines: „Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund“ *.
* The European concept ‘nationality’ is very different from the one in the American continent. The German language Wikipedia entry for the word Migrationshintergrund is elucidating and also makes for an amusing read defining the term ‘Biodeutsch’ as an antonym to immigrants.
I am writing this letter to advise you that Ricardo Viviani is a valuable teacher to any performance program. He has taught for the State University of New York at New Paltz Study Abroad dance program in Prague and in Italy for many years.
He offers, from his incredible performing experience over the years as a dancer and a choreographer of opera and musicals, a unique approach to teaching which captures the students immediately with his energy. The workshops he gave were always a high point in the program and valued highly by the students and by me.
You will be very fortunate to have him as a teacher.
Sincerely Lynn Barr [Director of SUNY STUDY DANCE ABROAD]
