The YDE will also present 91ÑÇÉ«Ìýdance and concurrent education studentÌýAnne Goad's poignant duet It's just what you do, which will beÌýperformed by a different couple each evening.ÌýEach group of dancers will perform the duet not to the original music, but instead to live improvised music provided by the YDE musicians withÌýtwo different musicians performing each evening.
