About this product

About this product

Product Information

This volume contains valuable resources for scholars and students of dance. A full Labanotation score of Jooss's ballet Big City together with a score of the music by Alexandre Tansman, arranged for a single piano, are both published for the first time. Valuable additional information is provided about props, costumes and casting requirements together with a production history and critical survey of the ballet. Illustrations include previously unpublished photographs and a selection of Hermann Markard's costume designs. Jooss's Big City is a dance vignette: evocative, sincere, a simple story told in three scenes of a working girl seduced by a Libertine. With it's complex musical cross-rhythms and counter-rhythms, its pioneering use of cinematic effects on the stage and its unique dance imagery, Jooss conveys his social message and uses dance as a medium to present poignant drama.
