Choreography and Costumes by Josephine A. Zmolek Scenery by Patricia Reagan Music by Robert Fruehwald Audio Sample (from final flute duet) mp3: 556 k Anticipatory Illumination is a dance work inspired by the philosopher Ernst Bloch. Block wrote: The solution to the question of aesthetic truth lies in this direction: art is a laboratory and also a feast of accomplished possibilities plus the experienced alternatives within it while the performance as well as the result take place in the manner of the substantiated illusion, i.e., of the worldly completed anticipatory illumination. The setting, costumes, and music are inspired by Javanese culture. The musical score is broken into five sections, each representing a level of ascent from the earthly to the spiritual. While the music was prerecorded, for use with the dance, it is made up entirely of sampled instrumental sounds. A zither, gongs, bells, metal bowls, a folk recorder, clay flute, and modern flutes were used.
