This year for Toronto’s Nuit Blanche, Peggy Baker Dance Projects created a 12 hour performance from 7pm to 7 am. 12 dancers performed an ever-changing series of duets created from solo works by acclaimed choreographer, Peggy Baker, accompanied by random superimpositions of recordings for electro-acoustic hurdy-gurdy by Ben Grossman. The dance and music continuously re-sequenced themselves to create a real-time composition through the night.
