Savion Glover.
I was able to attend his "Bare Soundz" performance here in Tucson last night.
I witnessed Grace.
Humor. Joy.
Rhythm (of course).
Stamina - amazing stamina.
Clever. Charming.
Flow. Energy - Tap Jazz.
Shared Joy.
Experience and innovation.
Honor and Gratitude - shared by Mr. Glover with the generous sponsors, the two gentlemen with whom he shared the stage: Marshall Davis Jr. and Keitaro Hosokawa, the stage crew, the sound-man (!), Mr. Gregory Hines, the ushers, the pre-show Tap Performers in the Centennial Hall courtyard, and shared with the audience (which happened to include Mr. Ben Vereen(!) {who inspired a special song from Mr. Glover!}).
Here's a small sampling of what I was gifted with last night: Savion Glover on the Colbert Report.
(Yes, some of my knitting was imbued with last night's rhythm: The Einstein Coat, The Birds Nest Shawl, and a stray green hat I pulled from the UFO pile.)
