Revelations (Alvin Ailey)
''Revelations'' is the signature choreographic work of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. It was first produced by Alvin Ailey Dance Theater in New York City, New York on January 31, 1960. ''Revelations'' tells the story of African-American faith and tenacity from slavery to freedom through a suite of dances set to spirituals and blues music.
==Overview==
Ailey intended for the dance to be the second part of a larger, evening-length survey of African-American music which had been begun in 1958 with his work ''Blues Suite'' though this was never fully realized. At its premiere, the piece initially had 15 sections, a live vocal chorus, and was an over an hour in duration, and included 2 soloists. Sections were removed as the work evolved, and an extensive tour sponsored by the U.S. Department in 1962 forced Ailey to commit the music for ''Revelations'' to recording. The dance then solidified into the three-part format seen today. The original score included parts for guitar, percussion and violin and voice. The piece was expanded to include parts for keyboards, drums and electric bass.whatever
Ailey did not dance in the world premiere, but as early company personnel shifted, he performed some of its group sections as solos.
''Revelations'' is divided into three sections "Pilgrim of Sorrow", "Take Me to the Water" and "Move Members, Move"
