Produktbeschreibung

William Forsythe is one of the most, if not the most, important choreographers of the last 25 years. As director of the Frankfurt Ballet (1984-2004) he has been lauded for reinvigorating the language of classical ballet (he is often referred to as Balanchine's heir) in a fearless and comprehensiveness examination of its most fundamental assumptions and precepts. With his far-ranging references and insistence that ballet is a contemporary medium, Forsythe has created a crossover audience, giving this edited collection of essays interdisciplinary appeal - extending beyond the ballet and dance communities.
