I think a great dancer--even one coming in from an alien tradition--always contributes in substantial ways to the artistic life or "health" of a company. (I prefer the term "life" to "health.") I imagine many ballet fans would have lot to say about which dancers’ departures would most impact their favorite companies too. I don’t think the Royal needs Osipova or‚ in the past‚ "needed" Guillem. But having a remarkable external talent also has an impact on a company. In fact‚ I should think it’s likelier

Proxemics refers to the use of space in communication: "the study of how man unconsciously structures microspace-the distance between men in conduct of daily transaction‚ the organization of space in his houses and buildings‚ and ultimately the layout of his towns."

Music helped people forget about all the bad and horrible things going on around them‚ it let them escape their day to day troubles if just for a little while.

The main influences of Western art music in the 20th century. Early 20th century art music was some of the first music which explored the idea of dissonance; the idea that music does not require any specific harmony among notes.
