The Olive of Spathes

The Olive of Spathes is a solo celebration dance originating in The Fleeting-Unification of Musing. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by any composition of The Offbeat Flowery Buckwheat-Grain as the dancer acts out any composition of The Calculating Thought. The dancer performs along an improvised path, moving slower and slower to the music's duleklonit rhythm. The twisting dance is punctuated by soft spins and large raised left arms.

• The dance begins with the introduction of the music. This proud section is punctuated by body level changes and curved walks.
• The dance enters a new section with the theme of the music. This sprightly sluggish section is punctuated by sinuous leaps and body level changes, with partially realized moves.
• The dance enters a new section with the exposition of the theme of the music. This delicate section is punctuated by body level changes and independent body movement.
• The dance enters a new section with the bridge-passage of the music. This section is punctuated by understated runs.
• The dance enters a new section with the finale of the music. This calm section is punctuated by leftward bends and leaps.
