About this listen
Choreographer Nancy Karp grew up in Los Angeles, where she was an early student at CalArts. She embraces elaborate structures working with units of pure movement, investigating their potential through combination and variation. From these “structural investigations” emerge patterns and phrases that become her dances. In 1980, she founded her dance company, Nancy Karp + Dancers. On Night 3 of this year’s Other Minds Festival, Karp will premiere a new piece set to James Tenney’s Three Pieces for Drum Quartet. On the podcast, we talk about Karp’s education at CalArts, collaborating with composers, and choreographing her new piece.
Music: WAKE for Charles Ives and CYSTAL CANON for Edgard Varèse from Three Pieces for Drum Quartet by James Tenney, performed by Maelström Percussion Ensemble and Jan Williams (hat[now]ART)
