Example Sentences

But credit must go to Mr. Saarinen, who, starting from the original Shaker dances, has forged a wonderfully earthy movement language, full of lurching, rhythmically stamping processionals, arched backs, outflung arms and shoulders that look as if they could bear up under a greater burden than Atlas's. Mr. Saarinen and his seven dancers disappeared into this language, leaving the audience to squint through Mikki Kunttu's thick, murky lighting design.
