(Martha Graham from a letter to Agnes de Mille) "There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening That is translated through you into action, And because there is only one of you in all time, This expression is unique. If you block it, It will never exist through any other medium And be lost. The world will never have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, Nor how valuable it is, Nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, To keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware Directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, A blessed unrest that keeps us marching And makes us more alive than others."

Posted: 5/19/05 at 10:46amI have to admit that I'm actually quite taken with the recording, myself. I can't imagine wanting to se it STAGED, but I'm really glad the studio recording happened because the music makes it well-worth the effort. The recording is in rotation on Broadwayworld Radio, if you'd like to hear it :)

A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

Don't forget Sherie Rene Scott. She's on ALL the Sh-K-Boom albums. You'd think she married the guy that runs the label, or something.
