Summary
This dance was composed by Marks and performed by soloist James Croshaw. San Francisco Chronicle critic Alfred Frankenstein wrote: "This fine solo is a kind of modern paraphrase of Nijinskyy's Afternoon of a faun, exchanging Ravel for Debussy and lyricism for mysterious savagery, Croshaw's classic interpretation is very beautiful." -- The arts, The Cinema Guild.
