Zum diesjährigen Sommerseminar würdigen wir den 340sten Geburtstag des deutschen Komponisten Georg Philipp Telemann. Zu seinem umfassenden Werk zählen auch viele Tänze wie Sarabanden, Menuette, Bourées und mehr. Diese bieten uns einen großen Fundus zum Üben des Barocken Schrittmaterials und der Arbeit mit den Originalen Choreographien des 18. Jahrhunderts. In Telemanns Suiten zu literarischen Werken wie Gullivers Reisen oder Don Quijote offenbart sich Humor und Fantasie, die auch in unserem Sommerseminar nicht zu kurz kommen werden.

« A balli, a balli liete venite  »*

                Si le monde marche sur la tête, si nous avons le sentiment d’être des marionnettes, faisons volte-face et dansons avec légèreté et humour.

                Carnaval, fête des fous sont les manifestations d’un monde inversé. Déjà connus dans l’antiquité, ces moments de logique à l’envers avec négation de l’ordre établi se codifient dès la Renaissance.
