The Dance Notation Bureau's "Educational Performance Collection Series," consists of five sets of integrated performance, study, and research materials on contemporary choreographies. The five featured choreographers are Rachel Lampert, Buzz Miller, Moses Pendleton, Anna Sokolow and Clay Taliaferro. Each set features videotapes, Labanotation scores, written critical analyses for use in the classroom, and permission for unlimited performance of the dances. The project was made possible by a grant from the Fund for Improvement of Post-Secondary Education. Additional support was given by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Mobil Foundation, Inc. The cost is $750 for each collection (includes a one-time royalty fee and 5% shipping and handling fee for domestic mail).
