rdfs:comment	Syvilla Fort (née le 3 juillet 1917 à Seattle et décédée le 8 novembre 1975) fut une danseuse, professeure de danse et chorégraphe Afro-américaine. Sa danse mêlait les techniques inspirées de la danse moderne américaine aux styles de danses africaines et caribéennes. Elle est aussi entrée dans l’histoire de l’avant-garde américaine puisque c’est pour accompagner sa pièce chorégraphique Bacchanale (1940) que le célèbre compositeur de musique expérimentale John Cage a composé sa première pièce pour piano préparé. Pour ce dernier, Syvilla Fort était tout simplement "une danseuse extraordinaire". (fr) Syvilla Fort (July 3, 1917 – November 8, 1975) was an American dancer, choreographer, and dance teacher.
