Summary
Susan Au: Ballet and Modern Dance
Anyone interested in dance will feel the need to have a guide through the rich history of this art and its complex present. Susana Au's text covers the entire subject. She vividly describes the great performers and shows of the past and explores the dance world of today in detail. A rich selection of illustrations completes the picture, taking the reader from Medici palaces to Manhattan lofts, from the dance of Louis XIV to the experimental choreography of Twyla Tharp and Pina Bausch.
A new introduction by Jim Rater and a revised and updated final chapter place the book firmly in the new millennium by highlighting leading choreographers and performers and such styles as krumping and parkour and their influence. He also talks about the development of technology in the scene, about new media and reality television, including the use of laser beams, You Tube and So You Think You Can Dance, to give a picture of a vibrant, technologically aligned and distinctly evolving medium.
