An analysis of three choreographic works : old friends, sacred spirits and cool wind blowing
My choreographic career commenced in 1975 when my first work, Aexia, was presented as part of a third year choreographic examination at undergraduate level. Between 1979 and 2000, I created a number of dance works for CAPAB Ballet Company (now Cape Town City Ballet Company) and the University of Cap...

| description | My choreographic career commenced in 1975 when my first work, Aexia, was presented as part of a third year choreographic examination at undergraduate level. Between 1979 and 2000, I created a number of dance works for CAPAB Ballet Company (now Cape Town City Ballet Company) and the University of Cape Town Ballet School (now UCT School of Dance). The works were all choreographed in a classical ballet style in which I was trained from the age of five. The ballets were most often created in an abstract form where interpretation of music into movement formed the primary motivation. Against this background, the creation of a portfolio of three dance works submitted for the Masters Degree in Choreography at this time has become part of a personal process of choreographic development beyond the traditional classical dance style with which I am so familiar, towards a more modem contemporary style of dance which I anticipated would offer me new avenues of creativity. |
