A \u201940s film noir, Mickey Spillane kind of guy \u2014 but he doesn\u2019t lay a hand on her. \u2026 Viviani\u2019s in formal pants, black suspenders, a sleeveless undershirt. He slowly raises his arms, folds them across his chest. He points his index finger, then with the other hand pushes softly in the opposite direction with measured force. Repeating gestures, speeding them up, adding more, he produces a steady flow of contradictory impulses, while playing off the waltz rhythms. He opens his hands with a kind of helpless strength, then draws them in to his chest and cringes. The accelerating repetition of impassioned gestures gradually builds as unbearable pressure of feeling in him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"level2\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ricardoviviani.com\/public\/pix\/logos\/nytlogo379x64.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"190\" height=\"32\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"10\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The New York Times <br \/>by Jennifer Dunning<\/h3>\n<p>Blue Danube \u2013 New York City<\/p>\n<p class=\"level2\">\n<p>\u2026 Mr. Viviani, a relatively new choreographer, took simple themes and dealt with them with admirable simplicity \u2026 The quality of movement is most subtle and interesting in \u201cBlue Danube,\u201d set to the Strauss waltz, its message is mystifying.
