The most important elements of the program included joint conferences and research of experts, conducted in 2010, both in Poland and Norway. The final conference was held on 9-10 March 2011 in the Provincial House of Culture in Kielce. Thematic issues presented during the conference can be divided into several groups. The first comprises historical and theoretical papers, talking about shaping interests of traditional dance popu- lar in Poland, Norway and other countries (dr Tomasz Nowak, prof. Egil Bakka, dr Gediminas Karoblis, Jørgen Torp). The second group includes papers presenting the state of archives of tradition- al dance in Poland (Jacek Jackowski, Piotr Zgorzelski, Małgorzata Jędruch-Włodarczyk). Presentations of the third group (Krystyna Stańczak-Pałyga, Katarzyna Staniszewska, Małgorzata Borowiec, Aleksandra Kmini- kowska, Tone Honningsvåg Erlien) contained contemporary initia- tives of continuation of traditional dance presence in the life of so- cieties in both countries. The final part consisted of presentations summarizing field work carried out during the project (Janusz Prusinowski, Maj Vester Larsen, dr Tomasz Nowak). We would like to thank dr Grażyna Dąbrowska for inspiration and valuable suggestions. We would like to thank all the people with whom we worked during the project. We direct our acknowledgements to: prof. Lud- wik Bielawski, dr Bożena Lewandowska, Mirosław Nalaskowski, Aleksandra Szurmiak-Bogucka, Jaro sław Wojciechowski, Dorota Ząbko wska, Benedykt Kafel. We would also like to thank directors and instructors of community centers and artistic directors of folk 7 groups. We would cordially like to thank our Norwegian friends from Norwegian Council for Traditional Music and Dance in Trondheim, led by professor Egil Bakka Małgorzata Michałowska-Wójcik Karolina Opałko Przedmowa Przedstawiane teksty są wynikiem konferencji podsumowu- jącej projekt „Taniec ludowy dawniej i dziś, wymiana kultural- na i współpraca ekspertów w dziedzinie tańca i muzyki ludowej Polski i Norwegii”. Do najważniejszych elementów programu na- leżały wspólne konferencje i badania ekspertów przeprowadzone w 2010 r. zarówno w Polsce, jak i w Norwegii. Konferencja podsumo- wująca odbyła się w dniach 9-10 marca 2011 roku w Wojewódzkim Domu Kultury w Kielcach. Zaprezentowane podczas konferencji zagadnienia tematycznie można podzielić na kilka grup. Na pierw- szą składają się referaty o charakterze historycznym i teoretycz- nym, mówiące o kształtowaniu się zainteresowań problematyką tańca tradycyjnego i popularnego w Polsce, Norwegii, a także in- nych krajach (dr Tomasz Nowak, prof. Egil Bakka, dr Gediminas Karoblis, Jørgen Torp). Do grupy drugiej zaliczyć należy referaty prezentujące stan archiwaliów tradycyjnego tańca w Polsce (Jacek Jackowski, Piotr Zgorzelski, Małgorzata Jędruch-Włodarczyk). Wystąpienia trzeciej grupy (Krystyna Stańczak-Pałyga, Kata rzyna Staniszewska, Małgorzata Borowiec, Aleksandra Kmini kowska, Tone Honningsvåg Erlien) referują współczesne inicjatywy konty- nuacji obecności tańców tradycyjnych w życiu społeczeństw oby- dwu krajów. Całość zamykają wystąpienia podsumowujące prace terenowe realizowane w trakcie projektu (Janusz Prusinowski, Maj Vester Larsen, dr Tomasz Nowak). Dziękujemy pani dr Grażynie Dąbrowskiej za inspirację i cenne sugestie. Pragniemy gorąco podziękować wszystkim osobom, z którymi współpracowaliśmy w trakcie realizacji projektu. Podziękowania skła- damy: prof. Ludwikowi Bielawskiemu, dr Boże nie Lewandowskiej, Mirosławowi Nalaskowskiemu, Aleksan drze Szurmiak-Boguckiej, Jaro sław owi Wojciechowskiemu, Dorocie Ząbkowskiej, Benedyktowi 9 Kaflowi.

Tradycyjnej Muzyki i Tańca w Trondheim z prof. Egilem Bakka na czele. Małgorzata Michałowska-Wójcik Karolina Opałko Tomasz Nowak Polish ethnochoreology: achievements and perspectives Contrary to popular opinion, Polish ethnochoreology enjoys a rich pool of research and documentation, spanning the period since the beginning of 19th century. What should be stressed, this pool was col- lected despite immense losses in historical materials, resulting from quite frequent wars rolling across our country between the beginning of the 17th century and the mid-20th century, as well as an almost per- manently unstable social and political situation, save for the periods of Congress Poland, the two decades between the World Wars, and the contemporary times. All this effectuated a phased development of research, and an uneven pace of appearance of new publications. It is still worth to review and assess it1, with a view to define the percep- tion of folk dance both in the past and in the contemporary. Due to a dominant cultural convention, as well as due to the aforementioned war losses, only fractional references to dance in historical Poland survived to our times. The oldest of them are those included in the Mikołaj of Koźle’s Codex, written in the 1st quarter of the 15th century, and Annals, or Chronicles of the Famous Kingdom of Poland (Annales seu cronicae incliti Regni Poloniae) by Jan Długosz, written between 1455 and 1480.

  • 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.

    ABSTRACTS FOR THE 45th ICTM WORLD CONFERENCE BANGKOK, 11–17 JULY 2019 THURSDAY, 11 JULY 2019 IA KEYNOTE ADDRESS Jarernchai Chonpairot (Mahasarakham UnIversIty). Transborder TheorIes and ParadIgms In EthnomusIcological StudIes of Folk MusIc: VIsIons for Mo Lam in Mainland Southeast Asia ThIs talk explores the nature and IdentIty of tradItIonal musIc, prIncIpally khaen musIc and lam performIng arts In northeastern ThaIland (Isan) and Laos. Mo lam refers to an expert of lam singIng who Is routInely accompanIed by a mo khaen, a skIlled player of the bamboo panpIpe. DurIng 1972 and 1973, Dr. ChonpaIrot conducted fIeld studIes on Mo lam in northeast Thailand and Laos with Dr. Terry E. Miller. For many generatIons, LaotIan and Thai villagers have crossed the natIonal border constItuted by the Mekong RIver to visit relatIves and to partIcipate In regular festivals. However, ChonpaIrot and Miller’s fieldwork took place durIng the fInal stages of the VIetnam War which had begun more than a decade earlIer. DurIng theIr fIeldwork they collected cassette recordings of lam singIng from LaotIan radIo statIons In VIentIane and Savannakhet. ChonpaIrot also conducted fieldwork among Laotian artists living in Thai refugee camps. After the VIetnam War ended, many more Laotians who had worked for the AmerIcans fled to ThaI refugee camps. ChonpaIrot delIneated Mo lam regIonal melodIes coupled to specIfic IdentItIes In each locality of the music’s origin. He chose Lam Khon Savan from southern Laos for hIs dIssertation topIc, and also collected data from senIor Laotian mo lam tradItion-bearers then resIdent In the United States and France. These became his main informants.

The research focuses on “leotard ballets”, which are viewed as a distinct sub-genre of plotless dance. The investigation centres on four paradigmatic ballets: Balanchine’s The Four Temperaments (1951/1946) and Agon (1957); Forsythe’s Steptext (1985) and the second detail (1991).

    PARtake: The Journal of Performance as Research Volume 3, Issue 1 – Spring 2020 ISSN: 2472-0860 The Implications of Using Interactive Artifacts to Bridge the Divide Between Audience and Stage in a Conventional Hall Setting Maja Fagerberg Ranten—Roskilde University Mads Hobye, PhD—Roskilde University Nina Gram, PhD—Royal Danish Theatre Figure 1. Audience controlling the backdrop with the installation In Case of Emotion. (Photography by Mads Hobye). Introduction Within theatre settings like the Royal Danish Theatre,1 there is a tradition for a divide between the audience and the performing stage in which the audience rarely physically or verbally interrupt or affect the performance on stage. Similarly, breaking the fourth wall in the sense of the performers engaging with the audience is typically considered a special “trick” that is only to be used occasionally. The “conventional divide” should, thus, be understood as a context similar to the Royal Danish Theatre consisting of a conventional “passive” spectatorship hall setting in which the performances are played out (hereby simply referred to as “the divide”). Sarah Bay-Cheng, et al. define the conventional theatre set-up as “…putting the audience in the dark in front of a brightly lit stage…”2 We have explored how using interactive physical artifacts can give the audience Volume 3, Issue 1 – Spring 2020 – Fagerberg Ranten, Hobye, and Gram 2 the ability to either change or sense the performance in alternative ways, and still preserve the conventional divide. Through the three experiments, we see three distinct implications that are at play and need to be taken into consideration in the design process.
