ABSTRACT

The most important factor among the fundamental works deciding the style of the production would be form and contents of the movements. A number of dancers and choreographers have desires of expressing their inner world as a theme and through styles of movements. Since dancing is a form of art expressing the inner desires through such styles, choreographers, upon deciding their intentions and concepts, require a choreographing method which serves as logical foundations to convey their ideas.Consequently, in an attempt to examine the choreographing method, this study focuses on the choreographing styles of exemplary choreographers in three divisions. Viz., the vast fields of choreographing styles cannot be completely covered, and the styles are contrasted in three classifications of ?movements,? ?images,? and ?messages.? The representative choreographers and their works are Jiri Kylian?s 「Road to the Stamping Ground」 for movement, Lin WhaMin?s 「Moon Water」 for image, and Maguy Marin?s 「May B」 for message.The works were selected among the prominent productions which are on show since 1980s until now. For the research, analyses on concert pamphlets and video clips were undertaken. The analyses were not made on the choreographers: their spirit or life, but with a focus on the choreographing styles only.Through such research by classification of choreographing styles not only produces a methodology which serves as a criteria to critique for the students learning dance, but has its significance in suggesting a simplified organizational structure of free-will to verify the overall choreography field as a training in aspects of education and aesthetics.
