as Lakshmi would say, dancy goodness
I realized while discussing my insane schedule for the next few months (Arisia was only the start), that I need to come up with 20-30 minutes of solo choreography by the end of June, and our troupe's recital will not give me much to work with , as it is entirely to live music. As I've been a slug about exercise of any sort, I have been trying to either practice at home or get to the gym, but work has really interfered.
So, today I got out 3 hours early, and took advantage of it. I reviewed my music in the car on the way home, and tonight I spent an hour polishing one of my previous choreographies that is a must repeat for June. I have designed a veil piece to Trans-siberian Orchestra's Christmas Eve in Sarajevo, and it is by far my best solo effort to date. I blew the dust off tonight, and tightened up some areas that needed sharpening up. I really feel good about it already, and should have it polished in no time.
I have one other repeat, and I need to pick up 3-4 more. I'm hoping to modify one of our live music pieces, but my head keeps coming up with duet choreographies, and I won't have a partner for this gig. If any of you dancing ladies have music to recommend, please let me know. I really want to come up with a new completely traditional piece, but the rest can be whatever works.
EDIT: Also found my notes for Missionary Man, contemplating updating that one, but may break people (this is a veterinary conference I'm dancing at!)
