The Flower Festival in Genzano
Author: August Bournonville
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 9782881241451
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
Bournonville's "pas de deux" from "The Flower Festival in Genzano," an important example of the Romantic Ballet heritage, is brought to life through the use of Labanotation. This means of analysing works of dance preserves the choreography of its original form. Handed down over the years from person to person, the "pas de deux" has not always been danced in the true Bournonville tradition; now it can be danced in its original form and style. The publication of The Flower Festival in Genzano: Pas de Deux marks a first in making actual choreography available to students. Detailed information is provided in the Study and Performance Notes which are of great value to both students and dance researchers.

"'Irmgard Bartenieff has a profound knowledge of the human body and how it moves. I am delighted that this will now be made available to many more people.'." -- George Balanchine of Director, New York City Ballet "'Irmgard Bartenieff's pioneering work in the multiple applications of Labananalysis has had a transforming influence on many areas of movement training. Her careful and detailed development of the spatial principles into active corrective work has illuminated and altered the training of people as varied as dancers, choreographers, physical therapists, movement and dance therapists, and psychotherapists. Anthropologists and non-verbal communication researchers have found their world view necessarily altered by her fundamental innovations. The field of body/mind work will need to adapt to include her clear working through of basic principles.'." -- Kayla Kazahn Zalk of President, American Dance Guild

How To Do Things with Dance
Author: Rebekah J. Kowal
Publisher: Wesleyan University Press
ISBN: 0819571075
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
Winner of the CORD Outstanding Publication Award (2012) In postwar America, any assertion of difference from the mainstream anticommunist culture carried professional and personal risks. For this reason, modern dance artists left much of what they thought unsaid. Instead they expressed themselves in movement. How To Do Things with Dance positions modern dance as a vital critical discourse, and suggests that dances of the late 1940s and the 1950s can be seen as compelling agents of social change. Concentrating on choreographers whose artistic work conceived dance in terms of action, Rebekah J. Kowal shows how specific choreographic projects demonstrated increasing awareness of the stage as a penetrable space, one on which socially suspect or marginalized modes of being could be performed with relative impunity and exerted in the real world. Artists covered include Martha Graham, José Limón, Anna Sokolow, Katherine Dunham, Pearl Primus, Merce Cunningham, Paul Taylor, Donald McKayle, Talley Beatty, and Anna Halprin.
