Mother (excerpt)
Roberta Hoffman performing a variation of Mother at Isadora's Legacy in 2000.
Mother was choreographed by Isadora Duncan in 1921. It is thought to be a dirge-like lament for Duncan's own deceased children or possibly for her own weariness. See Nadia Chilkovsky, Isadora Duncan: The Dances (1994).
