"Choreography for the Spanish dance Cachucha, described using dance notation Choreography is the art or practice of designing sequences of movements of physical bodies (or their depictions) in which motion, form, or both are specified. Choreography may also refer to the design itself. A choreographer is one who creates choreographies by practicing the art of choreography, a process known as choreographing. Choreography is used in a variety of fields, including ballet, opera, musical theater, cheerleading, cinematography, gymnastics, fashion shows, ice skating, marching band, show choir, theatre, synchronized swimming, cardistry, video game production, and animated art. In the performing arts, choreography applies to human movement and form. In dance, choreography is also known as dance choreography or dance composition. Etymology The word choreography literally means "dance-writing" from the Greek words "χορεία" (circular dance, see choreia) and "γραφή" (writing). It first appeared in the American English dictionary in the 1950s, and "choreographer" was first used as a credit for George Balanchine in the Broadway show On Your Toes in 1936. , p. 180 Before this, stage credits and movie credits used phrases such as "ensembles staged by", "dances staged by", or simply "dances by" to denote the choreographer.

"The Light Programme was a BBC radio station which broadcast chiefly mainstream light entertainment and music from 1945 until 1967, when it was replaced by BBC Radio 2. It opened on 29 July 1945, taking over the longwave frequency which had earlier been used – prior to the outbreak of World War II on 1 September 1939 – by the BBC National Programme. The service was intended as a domestic replacement for the wartime General Forces Programme which had proved popular with civilian audiences in Britain as well as members of the British Armed Forces. History The longwave signal on 200 kHz/1500 metres was transmitted from Droitwich in the English Midlands (as it still is today for BBC Radio 4, although adjusted slightly to 198 kHz/1515 metres in 1988), and gave fairly good coverage of most of the United Kingdom, although a number of low-power medium wave transmitters (using 1214 kHz/247 metres) were added later to fill in local blank spots. Over the course of the 1950s and 1960s, the Light Programme (along with the BBC's two other national programmes, the Home Service and the Third Programme) gradually became available on what was known at the time as VHF, as the BBC developed a network of local FM transmitters. From its first day of broadcasting in 1945 until Monday 2 September 1957, the Light Programme would be on the air from 9.00am until midnight each day, apart from Sundays when it would come on the air at 8.00am. From Monday 2 September 1957, the Light Programme's broadcasting hours would start to increase, with a new early morning start time of 7.00am, later moving to 6.30am from Monday 29 September 1958. In 1964, broadcasting hours were increased even more, with a new morning start time of 5.30am from Monday 31 August. Up until September 1964, the Light Programme would always end its broadcasting day at midnight; however this changed on Sunday 27 September 1964, when a new closedown time of 2.02am was introduced. The Light Programme closed down for the last time at 2.03am on Saturday 30 September 1967. At 5.30am, it was replaced by BBC Radio 2 on its longwave frequency and VHF and by BBC Radio 1 on its medium wave frequencies. The long-running soap opera The Archers was first heard nationally on the Light Programme on 1 January 1951, although a week-long pilot version had been broadcast on the Midlands Home Service in 1950. =Notable programmes= *The Al Read Show *Appointment with Fear *The Archers (1951–1967) *The Beatles Invite You to Take a Ticket to Ride (1965) *Beyond Our Ken *Billy Cotton Band Show *Breakfast Special *The Clitheroe Kid *Dick Barton – Special Agent *Does The Team Think? *Easy Beat (1960–1967) *Educating Archie *Family Favourites *Friday Night Is Music Night (1953–1967) *From Us to You (1964) *The Goon Show (repeats from the BBC Home Service) *Hancock's Half Hour *Have a Go! *Housewives' Choice *Ignorance is Bliss *I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again *It's That Man Again (repeats from the BBC Home Service) *Journey into Space (1953–1958) *Junior Choice (1954-1967) *Life with the Lyons *Listen with Mother (1950–1964) *Meet the Huggetts *Movie-Go-Round *Mrs Dale's Diary *Much Binding in the Marsh *Music While You Work *The Navy Lark *Orbiter X *Pick of the Pops (1955–1967) *The Public Ear *Pop Go the Beatles (1963) *Radio Newsreel *Ray's a Laugh *Richard Attenborough's Record Rendezvous *Riders of the Range *Round the Horne *Roundabout *Saturday Club (1957–1967) *Shadow of Sumuru *The Showband Show *Side by Side *Sing Something Simple *The Sunday Hour (1945–1967) *The Slide *Sports Report *Take It From Here *Teenager's Turn — Here We Go *Top Gear (1964–1975; a music show unrelated to the car franchise) *Variety Bandbox *Waterlogged Spa *Welsh Rarebit *Woman's Hour (1946–1967) *Workers' Playtime (BBC Home Service until September 1957) =Presenters= *Barry Alldis *Marjorie Anderson *Richard Attenboroughhttps://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/656f9afff7134c55a271f709472f2248 *Tim Brinton *Michael Brooke *Desmond Carrington *Sam Costa *Bill Crozier *Alan Dell *Robert Dougall *David Dunhill *John Dunn *Ray Moore *Jimmy Young *Tom Charmers *Don Durbridge *Franklin Engelmann *Peter Fettes *Alan Freeman *Tony Blackburn *Annie Nightingale *Tim Gudgin *Peter Haigh *Colin Hamilton *Paul Hollingdale *David Jacobs *Brian Matthew *Jean Metcalfe *Roger Moffat *Pete Murray *Phillip Slessor *Douglas Smith *Ken Sykora *David Symonds *John Webster *Roy Williams *Bruce Wyndham References External links *Radio Rewind – The 1500m Light Programme Category:BBC Light Programme Category:Defunct BBC national radio stations Category:Radio stations established in 1945 Category:Radio stations disestablished in 1967 Category:1945 establishments in the United Kingdom Category:1967 disestablishments in the United Kingdom "
