Audiences in one space viewed a live performance juxtaposed with video footage of the action in the other space. The first 23 min. of this tape provide a view of the choreography shot at medium range. This is followed by a rehearsal with the videographers, who film the dancers at close range, from constantly shifting angles. For documentation of the performance, see: *MGZIC 9-6273.
