註釋The author explores the relations between music and ballet. Part 1 is an overview of musical concepts in twentieth-century dance. The work of Emile Jaques-Dalcroze, Doris Humphrey and Merce Cunningham is considered, followed by an examination of the works of choreographers such as Michel Fokine, Vaslav Nijinsky, Léonide Massine, Fyodor Lopukhov and Serge Lifar. Using ideas from recent dance theory and musicology, the author then proposes a new way of understanding musical-choreographic meanings and of analysing the style and structure from which they arise. In Part 2, this framework is applied in analyses of specific works of Balanchine, Ashton and Tudor. -- book cover.
