Dance critic Andrew Adler reviewed the Mark Morris Dance Group for the Courier-Journal in Louisville, Kentucky. Here is a bit of Adler's preamble to a program rather similar to the one Boston will see March 19-22:
"A few days ago I asked Bruce Simpson, artistic director of the Louisville Ballet, what he finds particularly distinctive about choreographer Mark Morris. 'Musicality,' Simpson answered without hesitation.
Shouldn’t that be a hallmark of any dance-maker, I said? Yes, Simpson agreed, but emphasized how Morris’ choreography 'makes the music even clearer to the person experiencing it.'
And there was this:
"'All Fours' frequently displayed a ferocious energy that threatened to spill over in every direction."
That sounds about right, but we recommend coming and seeing/hearing for yourself.
