Rosas Danst Rosas TIP: try to use these words when you analyse ASDR and choreographic devices in the 3 different sections.
Floor – Section 2 � This section is all about exploring the floor using contrasting dynamics with an emphasis on suspension, fall & release. � Key actions used are roll, push up on the elbows, arch, fall, always using the breath as a way into and out of the movement. � At first, the actions appear repetitive, with the same movements repeated over and over again, but this is not the case. � Focus carefully on the use of the arms and you will see that tiny details change all the time. � Fragmentation (taking pieces or ‘fragments’ of movement and putting them together in a different order) is used to great effect towards the end of the section.

Floor section �In your own words, analyse the ASDR content of the floor section. �How does it help to convey the dance idea? �Use your mind map to help you and include the movement styles.
Chairs – Section 3 � The action content can be divided into 4 main motifs and these are fragmented and re-ordered throughout this 8 minute section, using a large amount of accumulation and relationships which together create a complex structure. � The 4 motifs are introduced first before building in complexity and intensity. � Motif A: Cross legs. Hand to hair, bring down side of head, over ear, to neck. Pull top off shoulder, pause, replace, pause, look over R shoulder. ‘Knowing’ nod with slight smile. Face front. � Motif B: Uncross legs. Throw arms across body to L, L arm holds top of chair, R arm to L hip. Suspend, fall forwards arms folded across stomach, head falls last. Rebound to upright, L arm crosses under R, R arm on knee.
Chairs – Section 3 � Motif C: Hands behind head, elbows raised to sides. R hand to breast, flop forwards, punch R arm down. Rebound. Backs of hands pass under chin one after other, drop forwards, replace. Arch, hand to chin & head turn to R, drop palm in lap. Upright, R hand over head. � Motif D: Twist/lunge to L throwing arms and clasping hands in front. Throw clasped hands across body to R, simultaneous drop forwards. Upright, arch, hands between thighs.
Chairs section task �Find a space and in pairs, mark through one of the chair section motifs. �Now include the appropriate dynamics �Share with the other pair

Glass Interiors – Section 5 � This section follows seamlessly from ‘Building’ as a continuation. � It is primarily focused on relationships, making good use of fragmentation which creates a canon effect as well as unison, counterpoint and grouping different sets of dancers together. � The result is a section where dancers move in and out of these relationships fluidly and it can be hard to spot where the change has happened. � The movement often matches the accents and dynamics of the music.
