TERPSICHOREAN SONICS (June 2015)
The beginning (15 min) "Tuning in Dance", bringing in 'the day' and
setting the ground for self-observation in relation to con-temporality,
will continue with (90 min) of "Tuning to the body of self and the
other" in duet/ group bodywork dealing with individual's relation to
indulgence/ resistance to gravity, and to articulation of body, and so
developing student's body connectivity, and his/her tactile relation to
space and co-dancers.
The two hours will continue with (app. 45 min) improvisation(s) on the
session's theme, aiming towards instant choreography.
Note: The workshop will use prerecorded music (as well as life music,
played by me on the piano, if there is one) of different music time
areas (from 'early' to 'contemporary' music), different genres
(improvised/ set), and different functions (folk/ urban/ art). Doing so,
it will unveil the meaning of 'not representation of certain aesthetics'
and will so speak to the students on plural levels of understanding the
vastness of the relations of music and dance. It will support verbal
discussion and feedback. Students will receive 'workshop notes', for
possible future recollections.
