Changes: Notes on Choreography.

(176) pp. Profusely illustrated. Publisher's cloth, dust-jacket with a small mended tear, otherwise a near fine copy. To this copy is loosely added a small card written by hand and signed Merce Cunningham, also added is part of the envelope, wiht adress and sender, in which the book was sent to Sweden. ''Changes, a look into the working notebooks of Merce Cunningham, is the most comprehensive book on choreography to emerge from the new dance. Cunningham's reflections on his art engage the reader in an awareness of both his own sensibility and the potential of the medium. Its pages are reproductions of the in-progress notes for the individual dances - to indicate the method - superimposed with speculation - to define the problem - and complemented with visual and other material relevant to the performing arts.''
