A step onto the stage, and the winds of our ancestors and the spirits of the racehorse seem to jostle through the skirts and hair of Martita Goshen. Each hand gesture, every head flit conjures up memories of native dances and old forgotten connections between horse and man. This is Martita Goshen's Earthworks' performance of "Turning Home," a tribute to American thoroughbred racehorses.

Martita Goshen's Earthworks - 9 dancers joined by female equestrian and jockey Janice Blake Baeza - will premiere her 'Turning Home,' a tribute in dance and film to the greatness and goodness of American thoroughbred racehorses Barbaro and the brilliant Ruffian, who both died tragically and too soon. The one-hour work has original music by Art Baron of the Duke's Men, and Grammy Award-winning cellist/composer David Darling, and video by Peter Richards. Three performances, tonight, April 18-20, at the Mark Morris Dance Center, 3 Lafayette Avenue in Brooklyn.
