Dance critique 6 essay

“SLIP” Contemporary Dance Critique As I began watching the dance, I immediately felt a connection between the elements of movement and the music of the piece as if the music was words on a page and the movements like illustrations.

Artistic Motion's production differed greatly from other ballets I have seen. In addition to having a dance school, they also have an acting school, so, The Snow Queen, involved both dancing and acting. There would be a few dancing scenes, followed by an acting scene that told the story of The Snow Queen, in an interesting way.

The dance attire went very well with the music. The layout from clothing to music and movement painted a very vivid picture as to what is being told. One big strength to me w loud have to be the distinct incorporation of ostrich movements. My overall critique would have to be a positive response. I would encourage o there to watch this piece.

Some tell stories and paint pictures, while other are for entertainment. As I watched the performances of each male and female dancer I analyzed each aspect of the dance. This included music, technique, attire, as well as many other important aspects. One piece that stood out to me was the Contemporary piece performed by G. D. Harris.
