Ballet; Theory of music & musicology

"This text presents an integrated approach to the study of rhythm and movement notation. These subjects, usually studied in isolation, are here combined to enhance the study of each. A complete course in rhythm notation is provided, along with cross-references to Labanotation, which are designed to help the reader learn both subjects more quickly and thoroughly. The text is punctuated with maxims to help readers consolidate their learning, and ""symbol cluster"", a technique for reading music notation and Labanotation with increased speed and overall comprehension. Assignments in each chapter, featuring integrated work in rhythm and dance, point readers towards varied applications of their learning, moving them beyond theoretical understanding. The assignments begin simply, with studies in beat division and walking, and progress to work with a variety of metres, and cross-phasing of movement and music. More advanced assignments include music and dance phrasing; rhythmic and movement composition, and the step-by-step analysis of a complete work of dance and its relation to music. A CD accompanies the book."
