DANC 138 PO - Concert Dance in the Global Age
CrsNo DANC138 PO
When Offered: Fall 2012.
Instructor(s): A. Shay
The 20th century witnessed an explosion in dance performances available to wider audiences than ever before in history. Millions of concert goers around the world could choose among a variety of performances of dance genres, both old and new. This course will investigate the history of these genres, their changing meanings, especially classical ballet, which began as a court-based dance genre, utilized in the courts of Catherine de Medici and Louis XIV as a vehicle for political propaganda, and ultimately as a middle class symbol of high culture. Ballet bifurcated into social dance and as a professional dance genre. This bifurcation of ballet begins the history of concert dance as a professional art form in the modern world. These changing meanings influenced the way each of these dance genres developed. During the twentieth century new forms such as modern and postmodern dance, butoh, styles of professional folk dancing that first developed in Eastern Europe, and classical Asian traditions that had never been presented outside of the courts in which they had developed. In addition, the nineteenth century saw the beginnings of Broadway musicals, and the twentieth century the development of dance for the movies, and later television, which dramatically increased the audiences and demand for dance performances. The course will look at the ways these various professional dance genres have developed, and the role they play in the concert scene today.
