C'est Sud! A weekend festival of dance and music in the streets and public venues of Aix en Provence...all free! Today, I stumbled upon dancers from Ballet Preljocaj, Aix's world famous dance company.
What I found most impressive about all of this art-in-the-street was not just the high quality of the work (which was excellent!), but the number of people engaged in the performance...each performance was surrounded by a huge, attentive and appreciative audience....
In the evening, there was music and swing dancing...I especially loved that Roi René created the backdrop for the stage at the top of the Cours Mirabeau...
