- Summary:
- "A conversation in which the Belgian choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker offers the performance theorist and musicologist Bojana Cvejić wide-ranging insights into choreography and into the making of the four early works [Fase, Rosas danst Rosas, Elena's aria, and Bartók's String quartet no. 4] (1981-86). A narrative self-analysis is prompted by questions aimed at uncovering methods and intuitions from the formative years of this distinguished choreographer ... Searching for a way to mediate the rich and diverse material that forms a choreography, De Keersmaeker and Cvejić create a compound score for Fase, Rosas danst Rosas, Elena's aria, and Bartók's String quartet no. 4. The score for each of the four choreographies combines a detailed verbal account, illustrated by numerous drawings, schemes, photos, and post-performance documents, with demonstrations danced by the choreographer, and excerpts from performances in which explanations begin to dance"--Slipcase.
