Cycles of work, event, and eat/sleep

Updated: April 13, 2009

It's been a great year going to events, meeting you and making new friends. But our careers are keeping us busy and we won't be able to keep up with the demands to keep up with the event alerts. We will post our reviews when we have a chance from time to time.

Please see right panel for sites we check for unique and fun events from less well-known organizations. See you there -- and don't forget to say hi

Love, peace and music, Jade & CHRIS - )

Five Gods Two Kings and the Frog Princess (Aug 17, 2008)

Event: World premiere of Five Gods Two Kings and the Frog Princess by inDANCE
Organizer: Harbourfront Centre
Cost: Free!
Pre-event estimate: 3 out of 5--sun+music+picnic!
Post-event rating: 3 out of 5

This is a newly composed dance that incorporates traditional Bharatanatyam dance. It is accompanied by various Indian musical instruments and Indian style chanting. This type of dance is originally performed in special ceremonies. A story is told through the special meaning behind each hand gesture. Although I don't quite understand the story, it's still fascinating to experience a different type of musical performance.

Kudos to the curator for the Music Garden for introducing us to music in different cultures!
