Ode to feeling unfettered and alive


When was that? For Cherie.

I deal in dreamers
And telephone screamers
Lately I wonder what I do it for
If l had my way
I’d just walk through these doors
And wander
Down the Champs d’Elysee
Going cafe to cabaret
Thinking how I’ll feel when I find
That very good friend of mine.

    Joni Mitchell, the Alberta Ballet is collaborating with her.

    The Banff Center:
    The Fiddle and the Drum
    “The contemporary follies of mankind, from our aggressive and warring nature to the seemingly unstoppable destruction of our environment, will be studied through the interactive use of music, the visual arts, and dance. Joni Mitchell’s poetic metaphors — in her music and her artwork — serve as a setting for the ballet. The dancers of Alberta Ballet at times give life to some of the characters depicted in her lyrics and in her artwork. At other times they work in counterpoint, abstractly illustrating our fragile potential for the creation of beauty.
    Joni Mitchell is in the process of adding another four compositions to the soundtrack, transforming a 48-minute ballet into a full evening work. Be one of the lucky few who will have the chance to see this new, full-length version of a ballet which has rocked the international arts world. A question and answer discussion will follow the performance with the creative team in attendance on-stage.”
