Avec minutie et un certain humour, "Un manuel de chorégraphe" retrace la fabrication d'un spectacle de danse jusqu'à sa présentation publique. Par où commencer ? Comment choisir les matériaux et les agencer ? Suivre ses habitudes, respecter les règles ou pas ? Comment subvenir à ses besoins, gérer les collaborations, les contraintes du marché ? Danser et/ou chorégraphier ? Partant de son parcours artistique personnel, Jonathan Burrows, chorégraphe, danseur et pédagogue anglais, propose une série de partitions et d'observations à méditer ou à mettre en pratique, invitant les lecteurs à considérer avant tout leurs propres choix. "Un manuel de chorégraphe" est un carnet pédagogique d'une grande actualité, mais surtout un livre de questions et, finalement, une oeuvre de littérature. Elle accompagne les danseurs et les chorégraphes, à l'aube d'un projet naissant, dans l'urgence d'une prise de position ou dans la perspective d'une vente de spectacle. Elle révèle la richesse et la subtilité de l'art chorégraphique, source d'inspiration pour toutes formes artistiques. Aux passionnés de réflexion philosophique, elle offre un remarquable outil de questionnement de l'existence

Told from the perspective of the dancers, Processing Choreography: Thinking with William Forsythe's Duo is an ethnography reconstructing the dancers' activity within William Forsythe's Duo project, written legibly for readers in dance studies, the social sciences, and dance practice. Considering how the choreography of Duo emerges through practice and changes over two decades of history (1996-2018), Elizabeth Waterhouse offers a nuanced picture of creative cooperation and institutionalized process - arguing for choreography as a nexus of people, im/material practices, contexts, and relations. As a former Forsythe dancer herself, the author gives novel insight into this choreographic community.

Text instruction can go only so far in teaching how to create dances. Dance Composition Basics picks up where other textbooks leave off, with a bound-in DVD that features professional choreographers and dancers in action. Designed for beginning college-level dance composition courses and dance educators at the middle and high school levels, this textbook and DVD package highlights selected portions of original dance compositions by two noted choreographers. The works of Alonzo King (Chants and Dreamer) and Dwight Rhoden (Verge) are recorded and analyzed to sequence the choreographic process. Students are able to witness a progression that takes them from conceiving and refining an idea to improvising and solving movement problems to shaping and performing dances. The methods featured in Dance Composition Basics can be applied to a variety of dance styles including ballet, modern, and jazz. Each of the 27 lessons serves as a starting point that encourages novice dancers to embark on their own attempts at choreography with more confidence. (Bron: www.humankinetics.com)
