 Background on the dance:\\ In the fall of 2014, Susan served as Professor in Residence at the Vanderbilt in France study abroad program in Aix-en-Provence. Rachel came for a visit and upon her arrival, Susan and Rachel took a ride on a diabline, a kind of souped up electric cart that transports people around the pedestrian part of the old city. It’s mostly intended for old people, but it works well for jet lagged musicians with heavy accordions, too.
-Rachel wrote the tune, “Voyage de la Diabline” for Susan a few months after her trip, and Susan’s choreography came shortly after. It was the first of quite a few collaborations; the two of them hope to publish a book of their tunes and dances and a companion recording
