Abstract
The Study on the Dance Repertoire and Characteristics of the Little Angels+ ×


The Little Angels is one of the organizations that has served as a cultural delegation representing Korea since the barren art world of the 1960s and 1970s. One of the most outstanding achievements of the Little Angels, which celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, is the recognition of the excellence of our dance both domestically and internationally through a variety of dance repertoires. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dance repertoire from various angles and to examine its characteristics. The characteristics of their dance repertoire include the establishment of our own repertoire as a cultural delegation, the creation of Korean dances based on New Dance, the development of categories encompassing both songs and dances, and the composition of works centered on group dances. Further, it is also characterized by the flexibility of program composition, the use of dance moves that students can perform, the educational effects that produced future leaders in the domain, the focus on the Little Angels repertoire rather than an individual choreographer, the relatively rare copyright issues, as well as the repertoire renewal appropriate to the current era. Through this research, it is possible to confirm the historical, cultural, and artistic significance of the dance repertoire that has been passed down over the past half century.
