Abstract
Mikhail Baryshnikov and White Oak Dance Project rehearse "Waiting for the Sunrise" and "El Penitente". Baryshnikov comments on stage lighting at the end of "Waiting for the Sunrise" and the speed of musical accompaniment during "El Penitente." There are two brief sections at the beginning: a company member warming up and an interview rehearsal. Time code is visible, there is an audible snag / image loss at 27:31, and the piece ends with a high-pitched squeal.
