  • Opening Remarks
    Opening Remarks Lawrence Adams was Amy Bowring’s revered mentor; his example has guided and encouraged her to tackle, with determination and purpose, assorted pursuits in dance. As Research Co-ordinator at Dance Collection Danse, Amy has been working with the organization, on contract, for five years. Many of you may know Amy through some of the projects in which she has been involved, and also as founder of the Society for Canadian Dance Studies which can boast a solid and active membership under her direction. First introduced to Dance Collection Danse in 1993 as a student undertaking research through York University’s dance programme, Amy’s passion for dance history triggered her interest in becoming seriously involved with DCD. After completing her BA in Fine Arts, Amy earned an MA in journalism from the University of Western Ontario. She is copy editor for The Dance Current magazine, has written various dance articles and encyclo- pedia entries, and is researching and writing a book on the 1948-1954 Canadian Ballet Festival phenomenon. And, to add more ingredients to the mix, she is a whiz at the computer! As Dance Collection Danse undergoes its planning process for upcoming and future activities, you can expect to see Amy’s involvement with DCD increase. To work with someone who is dedicated and skilled is a blessing, but to have someone on board who is also mindful and gracious is the best. The Editoral Committee and Board of Directors of Dance Collection Danse have dedicated this issue to Lawrence Adams, whose contribution to Canadian dance makes him deserving of ..

  • Dance in Copenhagen, C. 1750-1840
    Dance in Copenhagen Dance in Copenhagen, c. 1750-1840 By Henning Urup The subject of this article is dance forms in Denmark, and especially in Copenhagen, in the period c. 1750-1840. The account is based on the preseryed source material, and this involves an important methodological problem. Dance is a transitory phenomenon in the form of motion in the present. The written sources are descriptions of something seen and experienced, or instructions on how the dance/music is to be executed. It has always been diffiCldt to write dan ces down, and for that reason many dan ces have never been recorded on paper. In the European musical tradition, the notation of mus ic plays a central role, and the concept ofthe work is ofte n tied to the notation. By analog)' with this, incomplete or inadequate dance notation poses a problem. Musical notation gives us information about pitch and durations as well as dynamics and phrasing. The notation of dance requires similar infor­ mation, but also indications of body movemen ts, orien tations of arms and legs and progressions of movement through space. Dance notation therefore becomes complicated, and the various systems of notation are usually associated with specific dance forms and styles where. because of certain shared assumptions, one does not need to write down too much. Elements that are self-evident in the tra­ dition in question are usually omitted. Many important details have thus never been written down, and this poses an important problem for later researchers. The relationship of the author to dance and music is of great importance in interpreting the source material.

  • A Romantic Tutu Inspired by the Costumes of the Pas De Quatre Ballet of 1845
    Allycia Coolidge wearing a romantic tutu inspired by the costumes of the Pas de Quatre ballet of 1845. Photograph by Joanna Lupker. MAKING HISTORY: A ROMANTIC TUTU By Allycia Coolidge & In our Making History project, we chose to analyze and recreate a Romantic Joanna Lupker tutu inspired by the Pas de Quatre ballet. This ballet was first performed in BDes Fashion Students London, England during the Romantic era on July 12, 1845 and choreographed by Jules Perrot. This ballet featured four prima ballerinas of the Romantic era: January 20, 2017 Lucile Grahn, Taglioni, Carlotta, and Fanny Cerrito. They were icons of the time and often appeared in each other’s benefit performances, but this was the first performance to showcase all four leading female dancers in a single ballet. Prior to the Romantic period, female dancers wore heavy constrictive dresses resembling court fashion that weighed them down and limited their ability to dance. The key change in ballet costuming was the rise of skirt hems, which was seen as quite scandalous at the time (Mida 37). The changes allowed ballerinas to show off their much improved and intricate footwork. This new shortened ballet skirt fell to just below the knee. The Romantic tutu endures as a classic costume of ballet that continues to be featured in performances of major dance companies around the world. Each element of the costume emphasizes the femininity of the dancer. 1 When this ballet was presented in 1845, the bodices of the costumes were constructed very similarly to those seen in regular clothing. Like the corsets of the time, they were tight (Bicat), with low cut necklines to put the dancer’s long necks on display (Victoria and Albert Museum).

  • Yes, Virginia, Another Ballo Tragico: the National Library of Portugal’S Ballet D’Action Libretti from the First Half of the Nineteenth Century
    YES, VIRGINIA, ANOTHER BALLO TRAGICO: THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF PORTUGAL’S BALLET D’ACTION LIBRETTI FROM THE FIRST HALF OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro, M.F.A., M.A., B.F.A. Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Karen Eliot, Adviser Nena Couch Susan Petry Angelika Gerbes Copyright by Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro 2015 ABSTRACT The Real Theatro de São Carlos de Lisboa employed Italian choreographers from its inauguration in 1793 to the middle of the nineteenth century. Many libretti for the ballets produced for the S. Carlos Theater have survived and are now housed in the National Library of Portugal. This dissertation focuses on the narratives of the libretti in this collection, and their importance as documentation of ballets of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, from the inauguration of the S. Carlos Theater in 1793 to 1850. This period of dance history, which has not received much attention by dance scholars, links the earlier baroque dance era of the eighteenth century with the style of ballet of the 1830s to the 1850s. Portugal had been associated with Italian art and artists since the beginning of the eighteenth century. This artistic relationship continued through the final decades of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. The majority of the choreographers working in Lisbon were Italian, and the works they created for the S. Carlos Theater followed the Italian style of ballet d’action.

  • Soviet Bodies in Canadian Dancesport: Cultural Identities, Embodied Politics, and Performances of Resistance in Three Canadian Ballroom Dance Studios
    SOVIET BODIES IN CANADIAN DANCESPORT: CULTURAL IDENTITIES, EMBODIED POLITICS, AND PERFORMANCES OF RESISTANCE IN THREE CANADIAN BALLROOM DANCE STUDIOS DAVID OUTEVSKY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2018 © David Outevsky, 2018 Abstract This research examines the effect of Soviet Union era indoctrination on dance pedagogy and performance at DanceSport studios run by Soviet migrants in Canada. I investigate the processes of cultural cross-pollination within this population through an analysis of first and second generation Soviet-Canadian ballroom dancers’ experiences with cultural identity within the dance milieu. My study is guided by questions such as: What are the differences in the relationship between national politics and dance in the Soviet Union and Canada? How have Soviet migrant dancers adapted to the Canadian socio-economic context? And, how did these cultural shifts affect the teaching and performances of these dancers? My positionality as a former Soviet citizen and a ballroom dancer facilitates my understanding of the intricacies of this community and affords me unique entry into their world. To contextualize this study, I conducted an extensive literature review dealing with Soviet physical education, diasporic identities, and embodied politics. I then carried out qualitative interviews and class observation of Soviet- Canadian competitive ballroom dancers at three studios in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. The research conducted for this dissertation revealed various cultural adaptation strategies applied by these dancers, resulting in the development of dual identities combining characteristics from both Soviet and Canadian cultures.

  • Oct 2013 Ballet Plasters
    Artifact of the Month – October 2013 Ballet Chalkware: 1950s Kitsch Anyone who has ever taken ballet lessons is probably guilty of forcing porcelain slippers or ballerina ornaments on their teachers as end-of-year gifts. The world of ballet has not been immune to the commercialization that has resulted in kitschy merchandise to line the walls of studios and living rooms. At Dance Collection Danse, an army of plaster ballet dancers was lovingly collected by founders Lawrence and Miriam Adams because they felt it was important for the collection to demonstrate how the public outside the profession views dance. Though depicting positions that evoke ballet technique, most of the figurines would certainly receive a stern glance from any répétiteur. Known as chalkware and made with plaster-of-Paris, the figures are often garishly coloured and embellished with swirls and flowers, or are mounted on decorative metal grids. I’m Amy Bowring, Director of Collections and Research at Dance Collection Danse. I welcome you back to another edition of Artifact of the Month after a brief hiatus during which we moved our headquarters to a new space. We now have a larger research centre and a gallery for exhibitions. We hope that you will visit us at our new home. Now back to the Artifact-of-the-Month. Mid-twentieth-century chalkware was often mass produced for home décor or as carnival prizes until carnivals replaced the delicate plasters with sturdier stuffed animals as winnings. Many are hand-painted and, though mass produced, have a unique quality. Canadian manufacturers include Devonware, Winnipeg-based FavorWare and Girotti Sculptured Art in St.
