Pizzicati
Artist
Kaoru Ikeda
This project revives the 1916 dance performance Pizzicati created by Michio Ito, a Japanese immigrant and legendary choreographer and dancer who was deported to Japan in 1941 and erased from the history of American modern dance despite his celebrated and groundbreaking choreography for Broadway productions and Hollywood films. Ikeda will perform the piece at the American Dance Guild Festival and at NY’s Ailey Citigroup Theater.
