  • Recording of lecture-demonstrations given by Elizabeth Keen, Elina Mooney, Janet Soares, and Raymond Johnson at The New School for Social Research in New York City on Oct. 23, 1973. This group of lecture-demonstrations is the third of four that were held between Oct. 9 and Oct. 30, 1973, part of the ChoreoConcerts and critiques series of lecture-demonstrations performed at The New School and sponsored by the Choreographers Theatre. Each choreographer speaks about the work commissioned for and performed at the program, with some movement demonstrations and other illustrations. The talks are followed by a question and answer period with the audience.
  • Sound quality of the speakers in general is good. The sound quality of the audience questions for the most part is poor.
