When you think about John Coltrane, in my opinion - and I think I share this opinion with a lot of people - his approach to music changed other people's approach to music.
From Savion Glover
I realized early on, I'm more interested in Baryshnikov than some dancer who wants to do a rock show with ballet.
Every now and then, someone comes along - we used to call it 'New Jack' - tries to do something new, tries to take all the credit, without acknowledging the past.
I wake up, and I'm in the zone... My performance is the continuation of my life.
Everything has to do with meditation. It's a conversation; it's a joy - it's everything.
Who is Savion Glover? Who is that guy? Good question. I'm a lot of things... Intense... Focused.
I've come to realize that people dance for reasons of their own.
I used to think I could save tap. But tap was here way before I was, and it's going to be here after I'm gone.
I was very happy with the success of 'Noise/Funk,' but of course, there is a lot more that I have to say about the dance, about the history, about the people involved with the dance and their history.
I actually wanted to be a fireman when I was younger.
