The Michele Brangwen Dance Ensemble will show three short films:
GET OUTSIDE, our latest short featuring the music of Tim Hagans and created in collaboration with the Norrbotten Big Band, an innovative jazz ensemble based in Luleå, Sweden. Filmed on location in Luleå, GET OUTSIDE, will be shown as part of upcoming performances by the Michele Brangwen Dance Ensemble in Sweden in December 2009.
CONFUSION OF ANGELS, filmed at the Rothko Chapel and featuring music by Thomas Helton. The dance, designed specifically for sculptor Barnett Newman's Broken Obelisk and Reflecting Pool, was created in response to the growing number of casualties in the Middle East.
SANCTUARY MOON, featuring music by Seth Paynter, is a short film that explores the idea that a fragment of movement or sound can have a feeling of completeness, and perhaps our unfinished thoughts and actions have a power and beauty we don't realize.
The film showing will be followed by a Meet-the-Artists Reception. Admission is Free. 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. Film Showing is from 8:30 to 9:05 p.m.
