DANC 049G. Performance Dance: Repertory Section 7: Flamenco
The various sections of this course offer opportunities for study of repertory and performance practice. Students are required to perform in at least one scheduled dance concert during the semester. Three hours per week. A course in dance technique should be taken concurrently. This repertory class consists of choreography set to traditional flamenco rhythms with an emphasis on the embodiment of flamenco style and attitude in posture, body and arm positions, movement and footwork. Ongoing technique practice strengthens the dancer’s movement vocabulary and stamina. Communication between dancer and live guitarist is cultivated. Resulting choreography will be performed in the spring student concert. Class meets 1x weekly and includes 5 Saturday meetings. Attendance at additional rehearsals is expected. Students taking DANC 049 for academic credit are required to keep a weekly journal and write one or two short papers.
