Three of America's most important modern artists -- choreographer Garth Fagan, jazz musician Wynton Marsalis, and sculptor Martin Puryear collaborate in this highly acclaimed dance performance. GRIOT NEW YEAR is a highly successful demonstration of the state of high culture in 1990's America, with Marsalis's playful, innovative trumpeting meshing beautifully with Fagan's fluid yet complex dances and Puryear's eye-catching sets. Originally filmed for the public television series, Dance In America, the theme of the piece concerns New York and its place in the twentieth century. From Overstock.com for $7.59
