On The River of Dreams Choreography: Nai-Ni Chen Music: Forrest Fang Costume: Karen Young Lighting Design: A.C. Hickox Dancers: 1 woman, 1 man length: 9 minutes This dance is part
of the Dance Drama “ White Mountain Black Water”. In
Northeast China, the Black Dragon River lies beneath the White Mountain. Each spring, the glacier
on top of the mountain melts and flows down to the fertile soil and
river beneath. The choreographer's
inspiration for this dance derives from her imagination
of this beautiful combination of the reflection of the tall white
mountains in the black water and a fisherman on his boat, paddling
through the river. Beside him
is the spirit of the water accompanying him through his long journey
into eternity.
