Begin Anywhere is a response to the inspirations and methodologies of legendary American choreographer Merce Cunningham and composer John Cage. John Scott, the award-winning Irish contemporary choreographer who has had extensive dialogue with Merce Cunningham Dance Company across the years, and Mel Mercier, the Tony-nominated composer and sound designer, and one of the original musicians in John Cage and Merce Cunningham’s Roaratorio, debut a new piece inspired by their shared histories within Cunningham and Cage’s artistic universe.This Irish premiere will be preceded by an excerpt of FOUR SOLOS by Merce Cunningham, an arrangement of two solos choreographed by Merce Cunningham: Changeling (1957) and excerpted solo from Rainforest (1968). The solos will be presented in a continuous dance event with music by John King.
