Honoring Betty Jones
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 3 lety
We are heartbroken to hear the news of Betty Jones passing -she was an integral part of the Limón family and will be dearly missed. Betty Jones was a founding member of the José Limón Dance Company. She danced numerous lead roles in the Humphrey/Limón repertory, including her highly praised Desdemona in Limón’s “The Moor's Pavane." Her remarkable gifts as a teacher helped shape the careers of i...

Thank you for this post!
Beautiful
Perhaps, I am an old fogey. This is so moving to me this morning. Has this piece been ever presented in some Basilica? I would pay top dollar to see this piece with live organ and singers in some old Cathedral sanctuary. Thanks for this post.
Really...Just 58 seconds of Jose!!??...That was painful! Better not to see it at all.
A bueno no lo veas mamón
Where can I take a class in east hampton ny I studied with the company years ago
I was so lucky to have the good fortune to study under Betty for two summers both at the Limon Institute and at ADF. She was such a gifted dancer and teacher. She knew how to infuse the practice of dance with joy and delight while teaching us good technique. Thankful for her existence.

Betsy Haug's jazz-dance technique of connectedness and twist/release is just as significant as Humphrey/Limon's rising and falling.
I learned part of this dance at the UCLA Dance Dept. in 1974. Mr.Limon came to UCLA and set the Missa Brevis on the UCLA Dance Company I believe in winter quarter of 1971 or 1970 I'm not sure.
Agreed
Amazing! Thanks for that!
I just watched the Moor's Pavane as part of a Dance History course and Betty Jones was perfect. I saw Jose Limon perform in 1968 or 1969 at the Harper Theatre in Chicago and it changed my life. I spent the next 10 years dancing. I likely saw Betty Jones in that performance but I was very far away and I admit I mostly remember There is a Time dance and seeing the much older Jose Limon with the younger dancers...and I could not take my eyes off of him. His power and presence reached me in the back rows. I am forever grateful to him and his company for hooking me on dance.
🙏 ❤️
Nice work! where is this? who are the dancers?
What a treat to see the comparison. Thank you!
This is so lovely Kathryn. Thank you. I remember learning those arm/hand gestures from Betty Jones, with whom I was fortunate to take 2 week long workshops many moons ago. And when I have taught those gestures and movements that you just showed us and more to young students they have always loved them! He created something magical and universal there! Your spirit, Kathryn, is so inspiring and captivating. Thanks again.
Beautiful!
