Dances of Groups is a unique and interactive project that delves into the vast archives of dance rehearsals and performances created by Cyril Baldy. This platform offers an immersive experience, randomly showcasing each dance in an innovative mosaic format. Each dance is divided into one-minute video segments that play simultaneously on repeat, providing a mesmerizing and multi-faceted view of the rendition.

The heart of this project lies in the dedication and passion of its creator, who meticulously archived every dance, from rehearsals to performances, capturing the essence and evolution of each piece. Alongside these videos, Dances of Groups also features a random collection of insightful sentences written or re-written by the creator about dance and beyond. The number of sentences equals the number of minutes of the dance. The thoughtful integration of these written reflections adds depth and meaning to the visual experience.

Our user-friendly navigation menu allows visitors to delve deeper into the content, discovering the background and details of each dance performance. The Activity section provides a comprehensive overview of the day's featured dance, including the dance number, performers, location, and year, as well as the number of accompanying sentences.

Dances of Groups is a celebration of the art of movement and a tribute to the dedicated work of its creator. By sharing this extensive archive with the world, the platform invites audiences to engage with dance in a fresh and exciting way.

The project is proudly supported by:
