Interesting. A counter example, WWE (wrestling) is choreographed. The wrestlers react to the cues of the other wrestlers. It's not necessarily based on time or music, but instead a pre-agreed sequence.
I think the catch is that not all cues need to be time based and that is the distinction. In orchestration, there is one source for cues - the orchestrator.
The difference I think speaks to orchestration where the players get their cues from one source, while choreography has different source(s) for cues (time/tempo perhaps being one of them)
- thaumasiotes 2y ago> In orchestration, there is one source for cues - the orchestrator. Just to be clear, everyone's talking about the conductor, who keeps time for the orchestra, but conductors don't do orchestration. The orchestrator is the person who wrote the score.
- seadan83 2y agoGood point, for the analogy, I should have written conductor instead of orchestrator. The point remains though that the difference is in the source of synchronization.
