Become a Swan

Ballet Co.Laboratory teaching artist Sage Engle-Laird will show you how to create ‘swan arms’ and dance the beginning of the Dying Swan variation. As you listen to the performances for Meet the Instruments, invent your own dance to capture the character of any animals that you hear expressed in the music. Be sure to watch the entire video for a performance of the full Dying Swan variation by the talented artists at Ballet Co.Laboratory!
