DETROIT—Divine Performing Arts (DPA) returned to Michigan as part of its 2009 World Tour on an icy night. An arts educator was enthralled at the Ford Community and Performing Arts Center in Dearborn, Michigan on Tuesday, Dec. 30.
Jackie teaches performing arts at a local college. She is a singer and a director. Jackie loved every facet of each performance, using her professional eye and ear. She said the perfomance was “Fantastic, utterly fantastic, beautiful singing, beautiful dancing, costumes are absolutely stunning.”
“The choreography, the dance, the way everything is in time, and the beautiful pictures that the choreographer has formed in order to create an emotion, or to send the message across.”
“It’s an entirely different culture. The costumes are more glorious, the choreography is balanced, and the focus, the absolute focus and concentration of the performers, as everything is coordinated, and the way everyone is just… it’s absolutely stunning.”
“A sense of balance and harmony, seems to come across, because that seems to be what everyone is striving for, harmony, peace, focus.”
The DPA Orchestra includes Western instruments and some Chinese instruments. Jackie found this blend of East and West to be hauntingly beautiful, saying, “This orchestra is beautiful! It’s just wonderful, glorious sound, the music is just transcendental.
“They are very talented musicians, and they know what they are doing, they know the music, they perform beautifully.
“It’s got one harmonious sound to it, as any kind of professional orchestra should be, most definitely.
She said it sounds Eastern, “you have more of the wood, you have more of the flute sound than (in a Western symphony orchestra) but it’s extremely competent. Just one solid sound of an orchestra, it’s beautiful.”
