DANCE 413

Dance Composition and Production IV

This course provides dancers at the pre-professional level and opportunity to audition, choreograph and perform. With emphasis on the art of creating effective dance compositions, students will integrate more complex resources and tools using theme, design, dynamics, rhythm, and motivation with the application of symmetry, asymmetry, phrasing of dance, and stage space. Choreography will result in a formal performance. Students with intermediate or advanced level experience in any genre of dance are encouraged to audition for admission into this class and will be responsible for acquiring appropriate dance shoes and attire.
