Roehampton University
In collaboration with the Society for Dance Research and Princeton University’s Music Department, the Centre for Dance Research at Roehampton University hosted a conference on music and dance in autumn 2005.
The Sound Moves conference involved dance and music historians and theorists, choreographers and composers, professional dancers and musicians, teachers and students. It comprised performance, lecture-demonstrations and papers on a wide range of topics – historical representations from Renaissance to present day, popular culture and high art forms, ballet and contemporary dance, interactive settings, performance training and cultural hybrids. It also introduced a number of interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives – such as structural analysis, gestural relationships, intertextual and gender explorations, as well as the notion of viewing work as meta-discourse on dance and music.
The proceedings are now available for download at the conference website: Soundmoves
