Warrior for Peace, choreographed

I am pleased to share Julie Bartoletti and Carly Higgins Sargent’s (of Dance FX) interpretation of Warrior for Peace spoken word soundtrack:

Watch this space for another choreographic interpretation as a duo from Susan’s School of Dance, as soon I have a link to its video. If you are interested in this track, it is $9.99. Please email me with the request and I will send a PayPal invoice for that amount.

Senseless

I was deeply saddened by the Las Vegas shooting. In the tragedy’s aftermath, I decided to create an original spoken word soundtrack that I hope you will consider bringing to your audiences through your choreographic talents. This soundtrack features two young ladies giving voice to my words. Click the play button below to hear Senseless. (Note: this soundtrack may engender deep feelings of sadness. Please be emotionally prepared before listening.)

I am making this track available for $9.99. If you are interested in purchasing it, please email me at morriss@squirreltrenchaudio.com.

Warrior for Peace

serra_angel_greg_staplesIt’s only appropriate to announce Warrior for Peace, an original spoken word soundtrack on International Peace Day. This emotional and relevant message was voiced by a 15-year-old dancer. Several dance teachers have gotten advance copies and will be using it this season. This unique 3:00 soundtrack is designed for a competition or recital dance routine.

The opening lines:
I will not give into fear
I refuse to learn how to hate
Even if you try to knock me down
Even though you might make me angry,
Even if you tell me I should be afraid,
I will remain a warrior for peace.

A small gift of peace

world-peace-090420wWith so much tragedy in the world today, I offer to you, this small token of peace. Please enjoy this mash-up of Aura Veris’ orchestral cover of John Lennon’s Imagine, with a poem written and performed by Suheir Hammad titled “What I Will.”

There is no cost for this mix, aside from $.99 if you don’t already own the Aura Veris cover of Imagine.

If you create a dance using this mix, I would be grateful if you captured it on video so that I can view it, and also share it here. Let’s continue to spread peace in the world.
