This photo was taken in one of the first rehearsals of Songs of Sorrow, probably in early July.

We used photographs and films to help us with remembering positions within the choreography as sometimes we rehearsed with as much as two weeks between rehearsals.

Much of the choreography was constructed through linking together a series of poses or postures, however with the image on the left, this position came about through trying to link one position with another but soon became a position in itself. We always refer to it as forward bend position.
