Herzlich willkommen zur 24. Etappe für Alte Musik und historischen Tanz auf Burg Fürsteneck!

Diesmal werden wir zusammen mit den erfahrenen Musikern vom Ensemble Oni Wytars und mit dem berühmten Tanzdozenten Steven Player in die faszinierende Welt der historischen Musik und des Tanzes eintauchen.

Gemeinsam werden wir die reiche Vielfalt der musikalischen Epochen vom Mittelalter bis zum Barock erkunden und uns mit verschiedenen Tanzformen und der dazu gehörenden Musik vertraut machen. Dabei entdecken wir die kulturellen Hintergründe und musikalischen Besonderheiten der verschiedenen Epochen.

Musiker bekommen die Möglichkeit sich intensiver mit dem Tanz auseinander zu setzen und zum Tanz aufzuspielen, und Tänzer können tiefer in die unterschiedliche Stilistik der verschiedenen Zeitepochen eintauchen, im großen Finale musikalisch begleitet von den Teilnehmenden der entsprechenden Musik-Workshops.

Lasst uns gemeinsam die Schönheit von Musik und Tanz vergangener Zeiten genießen!

You are invited to a friendly house-party in West Somerset featuring dancing of the early seventeenth century. With classes led by specialist tutors, you will be able to learn the basics or extend your skills, according to your experience. Cost is from £280 to £365 (325-423 euros). 

The weekend is based on re-creating the masque Hymenaei, with opportunities to dance, speak, sing and act. Music of the time will be led by Ruth and Colin Thompson. The masque text was written by Ben Jonson and the designs were by Inigo Jones, and the dance music is extant. It was first performed for the 1606 wedding of Lady Frances Howard to Robert Devereux Earl of Essex. Sadly the marriage ended in divorce and scandal. 

Halsway Manor is in south-west UK and is the National Residential Centre for Folk Arts. The Manor has lovely gardens, set in a beautiful valley. Rooms are comfortable, mostly en-suite, and food is plain, tasty and plentiful. The nearest rail station is Taunton, about 18 km away, and the nearest international airports are Bristol and Exeter. 

The 2024 residential Norwich and Cambridge Early Dance Weekend course moves to a new venue at the University of East Anglia.

Norwich Historical Dance is delighted to inform you that Kath Waters, professional dance lecturer and well known performer, will be the tutor for our next course running from Friday 5th to Sunday 7th April 2024. The venue will be the peaceful and expansive campus of the University of East Anglia with its unique Sainsbury Centre art museum. The course will cover Italian Renaissance and English Playford dances. Saturday afternoon is reserved as a time to explore locally or just to rest up a little.

Kath has worked as a professional dance practitioner for over 30 years. She has a passion for historical dance forms and enjoys teaching in the fields of Renaissance and Baroque alongside her work in the more mainstream dance styles of contemporary, ballet and jazz. Kath also works as a choreographer and movement director, specialising in movement for actors.
