Jon Morris and Daniel Burkholder at JOM Anniversary Dance

I saw Joy of Motion's 29th Anniversary Concert Sunday night. It was excellent. Jonathan Morris performed improvised electric guitar piece with dancer Daniel Burkholder.

Jon posted this to his blog following performance - they rocked the house:

More Duo Shows with Daniel Burkholder

This past weekend, Daniel and I performed our short duo improvisation as part of Joy of Motion’s 29th Anniversary Concert. This was the first time we’ve done it since I bought a wireless system for the guitar. Now I have no excuse for staying in the corner of the stage while Daniel is dancing all over the place… scary.

From what I can tell, we kinda rocked the house. Now that I’m moving around on stage, I can’t always see what Daniel’s doing, so I don’t really have a clear sense of what the performance looked like to the audience, but it felt good, and we got lots of positive feedback. Read entire post...
