Summary
A video recording of a lecture and demonstration by the Martha Graham Dance Ensemble at The Hewitt School in New York, NY on April 27, 2005. The recording begins in the middle of a dance but it appears to be the warm up for the dancers and is less than a minute. The demonstration is then introduced to the audience with a little bit of background about Martha Graham and her work. Every dance section is also introduced prior to the performance but they are not all captured on this recording.
