Un manuel de chorégraphe
Creators: Jonathan Burrows
Jonathan Burrows wrote "Un manuel de chorégraphe" as he choreographs a dance. “Make one part at a time, start at the beginning and go forwards.” Throughout the pages, the author reveals the activities and questionings that choreographers share in their practice: the motivations for creating a piece, compositional choices, the role of humour, virtuosity, dealing with market constraints… By advocating the art of the question, the English dancer-choreographer invites readers to find their own path and aesthetic process, while helping them discover the richness and complexity of choreographic activity.
