Paul Taylor Dance Company Performance Feedback

After experiencing the esteemed presence of Paul Taylor Dance Company and their performance of Aureole, Beloved Renegade, and Piazzolla Caldera, we have some questions for you to reflect upon.

• Did you notice a difference in movement vocabulary in Aureole (1962) when comparing the other two works performed, since they premiered more recently, in the last 20 years or so?

• Was Paul Taylor's inspiration from Walt Whitman apparent in Beloved Renegade?

Do you recall references to Walt Whitman in the choreography?

• How did the live music from the Pablo Ziegler Quintet enhance your experience of Piazzolla Caldera?
