Research on the Concept of Dance Performance

Dance performance,as an independent,comprehensive and technological subject in dance studies,requires theoretical summary from more researchers. More studies focus on the creations of dance performance based on practical experiences,while the theoretical studies appear weak. Most research on the concept of dance performance still constructs itself on the references of the other art forms like music and drama,and lacks of its own methodology. The paper focuses on the concept of dance performance,and analyses the three aspects: the connotations,characteristics and ways of application,providing reference for dancers' self-promotion and improvement of dance performance theories.
