In his newest work, LeRoy is inspired by the idea of making-music as a choreographed spectacle. Using a recording of Stravinsky's score by the Berlin Philarmonic, he casts the audience in the role of the orchestra and himself as conductor, performing his own gestural dance as a means of summoning the music.

      Sorry to say I was terribly disappointed with this. LeRoy's performance was self-indulgent and added up to little. It was neither real conducting nor dance nor some kind of interesting interpretation of either. I felt sorry for him, for the flailing. The music, masterfully separated and amplified from under the seats, was exquisite. Collapse
