The Groove! (Or how to dance up your music)
Thinking patterns and accents in music
Music and dance are two sides of the same coin. There is rhythm, there are patterns, there are accents, which give us a way of moving or emphasizing particular moments within a repeating structure – that’s the groove. In this workshop we will break down some elements of the dances and take a look at their inner workings: how rhythm is emphasized and how it plays with or against the music that goes with them.
What you will need:
To be comfortable with your own instrument, some basic dance knowledge, & an open mind.
What you won’t need:
Extensive musical training, advanced dance knowledge, & fixed ideas.
NB:
- You’ll have to bring your own instrument.
- You’ll have to sign up for this workshop. The registration opens at October 5th, 16:00 CET.
