With the main object of this study being Laban’s Dance and Movement Choirs, this article is set out with the following question: could the choir practices developed by Rudolf Laban, specially during the 1930’ in Germany, be read as a dance of masses? For that purpose, the article searches, first of all, to address the ‘mass’ concept and map the historical progress of Movement Choirs as a project in its peak in the last century. Furthermore, it is also discussed in the text another perspective entitled “dance of multitude”, based on the homonymous concept created by the philosophers Antonio Negri and Michael Hardt.
