On rules: "Try breaking the rules on a need to break the rules basis". A Choreographer?s Handbook invites the reader to investigate how and why to make a dance performance. In an inspiring and unusually empowering sequence of stories, ideas and paradoxes, internationally renowned dancer, choreographer and teacher Jonathan Burrows explains how it?s possible to navigate a course through this complex process.It is a stunning reflection on a personal practice and professional journey, and draws upon five years? of workshop discussions, led by Burrows.Burrows? open and honest prose gives the reader access to a range of exercises, meditations, principles and ideas on choreography that allow artists and dance-makers to find their own aesthetic process.It is a book for anyone interested in making performance, at whatever level and in whichever style."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aChoreography$xStudy and teaching 606 $aDance$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aChoreography$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aDance$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a792.8/2 700 $aBurrows$b Jonathan$01101003 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bUKM 801 2$bBWKUK 801 2$bYDXCP 801 2$bBWK 801 2$bCDX 801 2$bDLC 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bCaOWtU 912 $a9910791123003321 996 $aA choreographer's handbook$93754612 997 $aUNINA
