Lyrical dance is a fusion of ballet and jazz dance techniques. This style challenges choreographers and dancers alike to use motion to interpret music and express emotion. With a relatively recent history focusing on musicality a lyrical performance can include but is not limited to a fusion of ballet with folk, rock, pop, and alternative music. A lyrical dancer’s movements attempt to convey the meaning of the music. Lyrical dance is a very passionate and emotional dance style. Another aspect of this style focuses on each dancer’s individual approach rather than precise movements and is often the style chosen by soloists. Lyrical dance portrays certain emotions and tells a story through every movement made.
