JULY
Each day during the month of July 2020, Brian created a new dance to composer Michael Gordon’s 31 short piano pieces. Written in New York City during the Covid-19 lockdown, a new piece was posted on Instagram every day at Noon performed by pianist Vicky Chow. Hearing the music for the first time, Brian would then set out creating, and post his choreographed response later that day.
