Arvustused

Praise for the first edition

"A wonderful combination of readable, user-friendly and important information, without oversimplification."

Karen Reedy, George Mason University, USA

"This book is an outstanding resource for dance appreciation. It simultaneously covers the history of each form of dance, while discussing the aesthetics of the form, to the practicalities of what that form look like in the studio while taking a class. There is a very thorough discussion of the origins of dance, which also help us understand the relevance of dance in society in the 21st century. Additionally, the movement prompts help the student to understand the concepts presented in their own bodies. I highly recommend this text, it has everything needed to appreciate dance from all perspectives."

Jennifer Mizenko, University of Mississippi, USA
