"In a mesmerizing blend of melody and emotion, Jade Turner’s “That Wind” stands as a profound anthem for those embarking on the journey to pursue their dreams. With a haunting melody that lingers long after the last note fades, Turner masterfully weaves personified imagery of nature with her commanding vocals, vividly illustrating the courage required to leap into the unknown. Inspired by her intimate connection to the world of dogsledding, particularly her firsthand experience in Churchill, MB..."

Movement Samples of Choreographic works by Ahalya Satkunaratnam USHA/AGNI/VYAVASTHA (work in progress, 2019) Scotiabank Dance Centre, Vancouver Music: Matt Rogalsky Dancers: Aina Yasue, Samantha M Sutherland, Ahalya Satkunaratnam This initial development of this work was funded through the 2019 Research and Exploration Grant from the Canada Council for the Arts. The award provided an opportunity to start the creation of a new choreography, create an ensemble piece, and commission original improvised electronic music for the work. Tying in with several solo pieces on the Global War on Terror that I have made in the past 10 years, the excerpts here are an exploration of the Vedic deity of Fire, Agni—a recording from our rehearsal. Agni is a two-headed God, with three legs and four arms that hold various weapons (fan, discus, lotus, sword), he rides the bull. Here, we move through our various bodies and parts, as Agni—a, great a bewildering lord with an ultimate power of life and death. Here we experimented in creating the iconography as a trio moving together to the deep and ominous sounds composed by Matt Rogalsky. The second clip (1:34) is from a showing held on August 23 at the Scotiabank Dance Centre. Here, we do a theatrical story of Agni-demonstrating the deals made for the power of being fire. The power is destructive and his pathway shakes the ground. We incorporate the storytelling methods of Bharata Natyam in the contemporary work. The final clip (2:34) is a trio that incorporates the iconic red ribbon that has been part of my choreographic process on investigating war for the past 10 years. Here we draw on the lure of violence and the collusion of Agni and ourselves in this current and everywhere practice of violence. -- He rides the ram (improvisation/workshop) (4:05) The Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, Banff Music: Phillippe Melanson, Daniel Pencer, Silvia Tarozzi Dancers: Michael J Garcia, Madeleine E. Gilbert, Jenna Mazur, Sydney N McManus, Lauren N Runions, Madeleine S Scott, Sophia SS Shaw, Samantha M Sutherland 10 minutes As a choreographer in the Creative Gesture Collective Composition Lab at the Banff Centre (2018), I was tasked with play and experimentation. Every 2 days, new groups of composers, dancers, and choreographers were formed and worked together for 6 hours. The lab largely focused on improvisational dance practices with which I had very limited experience. Upon listening to improvisational scores, I decided to draft my own score based on the Vedic deity, Agni, the god of fire. I shared the score with the group and we then made it more concise, hence the title: He rides the ram. I then shared possible lyrical and gestural interpretations of the score in Bharata Natyam movement and we played with the movements briefly. We then improvised as a group. It was my first time working with such a large group. Inspired by practices of improvisation and scores, I continued this research and experimentation through the Canada Council Research and Creation Grant (2019) -- In (con) sequential (2016) (work in progress) (4:47) Scotiabank Dance Centre, Vancouver Video: Chris Randle Music: Frank Bretschneider’s “The Big Black and White Game” remixed by Nat Harvie 10 minutes In 2016, I participated in the 12-Minute Max program at the Scotiabank Dance Centre in Vancouver. 12 Minute Max provides artist with 16 hours of studio time over a period 3 months to create work and share it in a public showing. In(con)sequential explores the daily reverberations of GWOT in the countless facts of violence that are heard through the daily news. The ribbon began as a beautiful part of my costume, and later unfolded into a path, a wall, and then a news ticker, an object rejected and incomprehensible in its length. I was interested in considering how to dance apathy and forgetting. -- Con-Sequential, 2011 (6:37) Marwen, Chicago Video: Sherwin Ovid Music: “Documenta X” by Scanner 12 minutes (Con)sequential premiered at the performance and exhibition “Voices of Resistance 10: Revision,” in Chicago. The piece was influenced strongly through my own biographical and academic work in South East Asia and South Asia. The piece used the storytelling elements of the dance, and worked with turning the same hand gesture/mudra in opposing ways. Opposition and reversal were in constant play to evoke continuous cycles of oppression in war—the falling away of trust. Incorporating Theatre of the Oppressed, I used one prop—a 100-foot red satin ribbon. The audience had to participate in the performance as I danced through them, leaving them behind with the consequences of my movement with a red ribbon that tied them, grouped them.The piece is created in tribute to Lasantha Wickrematunge, editor of the progressive Sri Lankan newspaper, The Sunday Leader, who was assassinated on 8 January 2009, before his last and final editorial published January 11, 2009 which, addressed his impending death.

"Throughout the song, Chung’s vocals exude sincerity and warmth, inviting listeners to empathize with the raw emotions laid bare in each verse. From the tender vulnerability of the opening lines to the resounding declaration of devotion in the final chorus."

“MALA is one of their latest singles. The song’s lyrics weave a mysterious tale, akin to a cat-and-mouse game or the narrative of two spies attempting to decipher each other’s secrets."

‘Yo se que tu no sabes que yo see Que tu eres un bandolero Soy buena pero aveces tambien Soy mala cuando yo quiero’

Roldán: "One fun fact is that my dog is featured in one song with his cute howls and barks which we also sampled and turned into a percussion instrument."
