THURSDAY 3RD DECEMBER
Marvelous Musicality
Take your performance to the next level! Musicality is not just applied to dance steps, adopt musicality for your peels and reveals! Before Cello Bordello was a dancer, she was a musician trained in both theory and practical. This has led to an insight of the different layers and elements of music including time signatures, rhythms, melodic structure, tonality, tamber, dynamics, style, tempos and texture. This workshop will teach you how these tools can be applied to your choreography to compliment your music choice. Perfect for those who are creating solos or for those looking to expand their understanding of music.
Some previous burlesque or dance experience is ideal, but not essential for this workshop.
