Riverdance Jazz Review at MSU March 24 2012
The MSU.edu Wharton Center.edu seasons are always guaranteed to be worthwhile.
Riverdance is a sweeping epic of love, joy, pain of sorrow for lost loved ones, survival as a group through war, integration through the sea of love, and substenance from the universe, and universality of man. The Irish struggle of peaks, valleys, and overcoming when the odds were against them in famine, and ancient wars was imparted in the most beautiful impeccable way through the sound of dance. Essentially it's an emotional journey through Irish history, contemplation of man's roots, and love that will carry you through whatever was, and whatever will be in sweetness, strength, and soul. Riverdance is a once in a lifetime emotional maze that everyone should experience at least once, because the dancers incorporate vibrant elements of many dance disciplines complementing the musicians intensity to the ultimate degree in a driving rhythm. I'd say it's Celtic jazz at its very best.
The Riverdance Company was founded in Dublin, Ireland. CD's are available online at www.riverdance.com
