What does labanotation mean?
Likewise, people ask, how do you read labanotation?
The Labanotation staff is read from bottom to top. The space below the double bar lines at the bottom is for the starting position. The double bar lines at the top indicate the end of the movement. In the first measure, the forward high symbol is the length of twobeats, it therefore takes two beats to perform.
Besides, how is labanotation written?
In standard labanotation a vertical three-line staff represents the performer. The centre line divides the staff into right and left columns, which represent the main body parts. The staff, read from bottom to top, is written from the performer's point of view.
Language of Dance (LOD) is a unique tool for exploring, creating and recording dance through the use of symbols. Dr Hutchinson Guest identified and codified the Movement Alphabet®, in which each movement element is represented by a symbol.
