April 2 Dance Room, Recreation Centre Encounters (1980) - Jack Body

Encounters is an exploration of the rituals of greeting; juxtaposing familiar greetings with those from other cultures. The former are presented by a group of people, and the latter by a tape recording. This piece was commissioned by the Central Regional Arts Council for their conference in 1980, and has since been performed both in Nelson, and at the Cambridge Summer Music School.
