Gramilano dance quotes
RETURN TO QUOTES

I had to find a music that thinks like a body, not a mind. You allow it to breathe; it’s a very graceful thing to do as a composer, to go in one direction as long as you like.

Thomas Adès on composing Wayne McGregor’s The Dante Project

GRAHAM SPICER

Writer, director and photographer in Milan, blogging (under the name ‘Gramilano’) about dance, opera, music and photography for people who are a bit like me and like some of the things I like. I was a regular columnist for Opera Now magazine and wrote for the BBC until transferring to Italy. My scribblings have appeared in various publications from Woman’s Weekly to Gay Times. I write the ‘Danza in Italia’ column for Dancing Times magazine.

You can find me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, or follow my Facebook page.
