THE ROLE OF NEW YORK’S SCHOOL COMPOSERS IN THE FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF CHOREOGRAPHIC PERFORMANCE

Abstract

The article discusses trends in the renewal of art, clearly manifested in the American and Western European musical theater in the second half of the 20th and early 21st centuries. The author argues that all the diversity choreographic works in Postmodern Dance is based on common aesthetic principles, the formation of which took place under the direct influence of the American avant-garde ideology and experimentalism, which was vividly expressed in the works of composers of the New York school and then found its embodiment in the works of choreographers. This article presents an integrated approach to combining both as studying choreographic and musical texts and a study of the sociocultural situation. The author characterizes the artistic and aesthetic platform of choreographic performance, analyzes the concept of movement and the organizing principle an integral composition. On the basis of analytical conclusions, the author outlines a line of continuity and stretches the connecting threads between seemingly different works of American (M. Cunningham, T. Brown, I. Rainer) and European (A. T. Keersmaker, P. Bausch, S. Waltz) choreographers.
