Reignite The Delphic Flame with Jeanne Bresicani & the Isadora Duncan International Institute Dancers as they announce The Festival For The Reinstatement Of The Delphic Games 2017 Delphi, Greece May 26-31, in a live performance at the Princeton Club presenting masterpieces from the most acclaimed dances in the Isadora Duncan repertoire and new works to old masters in solo, duet, and group performance.
Experience the poetics of movement and the Muses among us in IDII’s New York preview of the historic tradition of The Delphic Games, dedicated to The Delphic Ideal of Art, Myth, Music, Dance, Poetry, Song, Theater astride Sport and the international energies that forged the ancient and modern celebratory communion of the Games. Enlivening Duncan’s goal for the “highest intelligence in the freest body,” we will traverse the sacred topographies of the body and spirit will be brought together again in a laureate evening dedicated to beauty, strength, and freedom.
“The Divine in Motion”
“Duncan’s dances swell in meaning. They grow from miniatures of beauty to vessels that retain the secrets of the universe…”
“Bresciani and company delivered the mythic and the magical”
