A thought for the day from R.R. Morrett (quoted by Harry Smith in his original booklet to accompany the 1952 release of the Anthology of American Folk Music) :
“Civilised man thinks out his difficulties, at least he thinks he does, primitive man dances out his difficulties”
Image from Christopher Bruce’s Ballet Rambert production of Ghost Dances – which still remains the most profoundly moving dance theatre I have ever seen.
