Bourree Project


Bourree Project


THE PARKINSON’S DANCE CLASS participated in the Bourree Project which was an initiative where dance for Parkinson’s teachers and participants had access to one of Mark Morris’s most distinctive works entitled – Falling Down Stairs. It was set to J.S. Bach’s Third Suite for Unaccompanied Cello. The Bourree Project focuses on the first part of the Suite’s 5th movement, entitled The Bourree.
