Dance and Heritage: Creation, Re-creation and Recreation
Biennial Conference 2010
Dance and Heritage: Creation, Re-creation and Recreation
Sat 20th & Sun 21st March 2010 St Albans
The influence of heritage on dance creation through the centuries, e.g. the humanist, chivalric or classical influences on Renaissance choreographies; classical mythology and masques and ballets de cour; classical influences on 18th century dance creations; the influence of the 18th century on late 19th/early 20th century dance school choreographers...
- The influence of a notional, ‘imagined’ heritage on actual dance creation – an imagined celestial harmony – an imagined court – an imagined village
- Folk Dance: Cecil Sharp (Re-creation of an imagined folk heritage) vs Mary Neal (recreation)
- Isadora Duncan and the Greek Muses
- Issues of the authenticity of re-creations
- Presenting history through dance (without using the choreography of the past)
- Presenting history through dance (using dance of the past to represent that heritage)
- Is there a place for new choreographies using historical dance styles?
- Can authentic re-creations attract modern audiences?
- Dance heritage and education – bringing history alive
The conference proceedings will be published. The text may be expanded for publication.
