Contents
File 1 (side A). The introduction begins with a short bio reading for each of the speakers present. The first question for the panel is asking how they each came to first hear about and then work with Martha Graham. The second question is whether there were various interpretations of the roles and if there were discussions on how to teach the technique (approximately 47 minutes) -- File 2 (side B). Begins with Pearl Lang discussing the energy of the technique, the urgency and uncomfortability of the choreography, Martha Graham's interest in human flaws and tension, the similarities in thought between Martha and Noguchi. The floor is then opened to questions from the audience. The first is asking whether dances are still evolving. They continue discussing the difference in how dances are taught now. The second question is regarding acting classes through the studio. The third question is whether the company performs works by the company members.
