Institution:

DePaul University

Subject:

Description:

This course is designed to introduce students to art dance in Chicago. "Art dance" is a term that refers to western performance dance forms such as ballet, modern dance, and jazz. In this class, we will concentrate primarily on newer styles of dance. The purposes of examining these dance forms are to develop a better understanding of one art form and to have a clearer understanding of the role dance concerts play in expressing larger societal values. Students will attend both class and concerts. Prior to seeing their first concert, students will learn the language of dance criticism and will recieve some brief training in how to observe and analyze dance.
