Over the summer I saw the most amazing, moving, transporting event at BAM. Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal created a dance performance with the music and words of Leonard Cohen that was such a deep tribute and interpretation of his work. It brought me in to his music more, and there was something so lovely and special about the whole evening. The choreography was incredible, breathtaking. The poetic eroticism of his songs, and his unique lugubrious voice were lifted by these amazing bodies and surprising and intelligent movements. It was a total, immersive experience that I am so glad I was able to see. There's nothing else like Dance Me: The Music of Leonard Cohen by Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal.
