Dancing on the Cutting Edge of the 21st Century
| The New World Scottish Dancers
is in the forefront of those moving into the 21st century,
inspired
by musicians
and bands, most of which have traditional roots but who
have moved into this century with innovative sound and
arrangements which call for
equally
innovative
dances
to express their particular quality. Heather Farquhar,
Lori Howard, and Claudette Sigg, have created dances
to the compositions of Alasdair Fraser, J. Whelan, Phil
Cunningham, Dougie Maclean, and Jerry Holland, and to
the music of
the Wicked Tinkers, Brother, Molly's
Revenge, Seelyhoo, and Annwn. |
