Carmen Bardeguez-Brown's Meditation on Love, Dancing, Loss, and Forgiveness is a dance of memory and desire.

It is a seamless combination of poetry and prose, English and Spanish, and the geographic roots of Ms. Bardeguez-Brown's life - Puerto Rico and New York City - which beautifully convey her inner journey, at times imagistic, at time expository, always blended into a powerful, natural balance.

The work consists of some pieces solely in English, some solely in Spanish, and some a combination of the two, which creates palpable dance beats, rhythms, concentration, and sensuality. The juxtaposition of prose and poetry, such as in "Dance Conversations II" and "Conversation Between the Leader and the Follower" enhance the effects.

Even if your Spanish is not good enough, like mine, to get the nuances of the Spanish pieces, the rhythms and emotions are easily discernible.

No matter how winding the subject matter is, the ultimate feeling is of simplicity and acceptance.

--Don Linder, award-winning script and fiction writer
