cm. 17 x 24, x-518 pp. Fondazione Giorgio Cini - Studi di musica veneta Fin dalle origini l?umanit? ha espresso profonde emozioni attraverso la danza, sempre presente nei riti e nelle cerimonie di tutte le culture, con un ruolo importante anche nella musica e nello spettacolo occidentale. Il ballo - battistrada per le ricerche sull?astrazione dell?ermetismo - ? presente in questo volume nell?accezione teatrale, con l?approfondimento di quel ?super-genere? che ? il pantomimo, in una silloge di rilevanti studi per onorare la memoria di un grande maestro: Aurel Millos. Since the beginning of time mankind has expressed deep emotion through dance, ever present in rituals and ceremonies of all cultures, with an important r?le in music and theatrical events of the West. Dance - leading the way to research on the abstraction of hermeticism - is present in this volume in its theatrical form, probing into its ?super-genre? which is pantomime in a collection of important studies to honour the memory of a great master. 1021 gr. x-518 p.
