Conversations with a Faltering Heart

A congenital heart defect is my inheritance.
Through my father I inherit my heart and with it a fallible valve.
Through speaking and dancing I examine the timeline of my own heart.

Musical score created by Jeff Morton using augmented steel guitar, piano and sound recording of my heart beat during an echocardiogram. In collaboration with Karlie King this work is part of The Moving Heart an interactive exhibition of sculptural hearts that asks us to slowly bring the internal external.

Special thanks to Traci Foster and Deanna Peters as outside/inside eyes, Tom Perron for anatomy expertise, my ever patient cardiologist Dr. Colin Yeung, the Canada Council for the Arts, and
SK Arts for funding this project.

John is a memoir of my oldest brother John, who disappeared from Vancouver in May of 1969, never to be heard from again. I sourced from an archive of family letters dating from 1959 – 2010, which document the years leading up to his disappearance, his medical history, and the subsequent tracking my parents did of his disappearance. He was twenty-three at the time and I was thirteen.

Company profile:

There are multiple meanings in any given moment, dependent upon the point of view of the experience. This is the pathos and beauty of our existence and can render any heart and mind tender. It is this which compels me to create my work, and it is with this that I go out the door every morning to meet all the incidents of a single day. Everyone’s story meets— sometimes colliding and careening—in unarticulated moments as simple as being jostled on a crowded bus. This layering and cross-referencing exposes humanity and is heartbreaking and mind opening.

In this sense my work is transpersonal. Through a layering and cross-referencing in my processes there is an energetic transmission through space and time in performance, and everyone receives their own story. Their hearts and minds are touched in a way unique unto themselves, and there is the potential for a sharing of experience.

Silk dance with live harpsichord music

Music
Paduana Lachrymae by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (1562-1621) is based on Englishman John Dowland’s lute solo, Lachrimae Pavan. The popularity of Dowland’s work was so great throughout Europe that arrangements of the Lachrimae appeared for almost every domestic instrument then in use. He subsequently created a version for voice and lute to the text, “Flow My Tears”, which enjoyed an exceptionally long life. Sweelinck uses the work as inspiration for one of his many sets of keyboard variations published in Amsterdam. Sweelinck was noted throughout Europe as a brilliant composer, teacher and organist - one with whom many prominent musicians travelled to study. He accomplished a magnificent synthesis between the variation technique of the English virginalists and the brilliant style of the Italian organists. In Sweelinck's Paduana, each of the three main sections is followed by one variation on that section - A A1 B B1 C C1.

SINFONIA

How to express and describe human suffering, human loss in the time of the pandemic.
How can one dancer convey the global loss we are experiencing.
How can we even comprehend the scale of this loss?
Perhaps it is in the personal stories, the individual ones that we can understand the scope of this human tragedy.
The music inspired by the death of Christ.
The pain of its mother
The pain of all humanity.
My approach will be of course inspired by the music and its absolute beauty.
It resonates in so many hearts, and resonates with me because of its Christian background, because of my Catholic upbringing.
The starting point is the pain of the mother losing a child.
It is a universal pain.
The dance will aim to express in a simple setting, an empty room, the loss. The absence.
The “coming to terms with”
If music and dance are able to elevate the soul, to make us feel part of the bigger universe,
I truly hope to be able to pay homage to this, and in doing so actively participate in our global healing.

Laurence Lemieux
As artistic director of Citadel + Compagnie for nearly two decades, Laurence Lemieux has established herself as a leader within Toronto’s dance community. Her multi-faceted experience as a dancer, choreographer, teacher and presenter has guided the company’s mandate of community outreach and engagement and given rise to C+C’s distinctive artistic voice.

Born in Québec City, Lemieux studied dance at L’École Supérieure de Danse du Québec, and at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre. Her performance career began when she joined Toronto Dance Theatre in 1986, dancing for founders David Earle, Peter Randazzo and Patricia Beatty, and later for Christopher House. A member of the company for 8 years, Lemieux’s 1998 performance in House’s Cryptoversa earned her the Dora Mavor Moore Award for Best Performance in Dance.

Over the course of her career, Lemieux has danced for some of Canada’s most prominent choreographers, including William Douglas, Margie Gillis, James Kudelka, Benoît Lachambre, Sylvain Émard, and Jean-Pierre Perreault.

As an educator, Lemieux has taught at many respected institutions including Ryerson University, York University, Concordia University, the University of Quebec in Montreal, l’École Supérieure de Ballet Contemporain and Canada’s National Ballet School. Lemieux uses her cumulative artistic experience to inform her programming choices for the company’s multiple presentation series, showcasing the work of diverse talent from emerging, marginalized and established choreographers.

Alphabet Elegy

Rae Staseson’s Alphabet Elegy is a performed ‘list’, using the rhythm of voice, combined with an exploration of language, to pursue loss, grief, memory, and longing. Often political, sometimes playful, always personal, this work intends to challenge and entertain. Alphabet Elegy is a collaboration with sound designer Shelley Bindon, whose original soundscape will further transform the meaning and lamentation of this work.

For Alphabet Elegy, a list of losses, she broke apart songs, scales, intervals and meters of the music and sounds that mark milestones, grieve losses and help us let go of pain. The result is a soundscape that will haunt, lament and underscore the losses in ways that hit at our shared culture and experiences.

“Rae’s list is subtle, subversive and in-your-face. The sound needs to hang around the words, cling from the walls but be there to poke, pluck and caress in the liminal spaces.”

Duration: 18 minutes
