Martha Graham's "Conversation of Lovers" (excerpt)
'Conversation of Lovers' is a duet exploring the constant, yet ever-changing, ties that exist between lovers. It is the opening section of the Graham ballet Acts of Light which premiered in 1981. Taking its title from a phrase by Emily Dickinson, a poet beloved by Graham, the dance introduced a new period in Graham’s work. Devoid of theatrical trappings, Acts of Light celebrates the dancer as an exquisite instrument of expression, while making references to earlier works in the Graham canon, such as Diversion of Angels.
