Spanish Golden Age Dance with Ana Yepes

Program:

- Introduction of some basic Spanish Golden Age dance steps
- Practice of various choreographic variations of Jácara and Spanish Gallarda
- practice and use of castagnettes for our variations

This workshop presents the Spanish baroque dance style. We will learn the basic steps and some variations of Jácara and of the Spanish Gallarda. The Jácara is the sister of the Zarabanda and is the origin of some Flamenco dances like Alegrías. The Spanish Gallarda is very interesting because it is really in between the Renaissance one and the French Baroque one, and allows us to understand its evolution.

It is addressed to students of different levels. For those who already have some experience, the workshop is a continuation of the practice and an opportunity to get deeper into the style. Those who never tried this style are also welcome.
Students who play castanets or who would like to learn are invited to bring their own.

Date/Termin:   17th - 18th October 2020

Stage de danse renaissance française et italienne

“ La danse est une espèce de réthorique muette, par laquelle l’orateur peut, par ses mouvements, sans parler un seul mot, se faire entendre et persuader les spectateurs qu’il est gaillard digne d’être loué, aymé et chéri… ” (Thoinot Arbeau, Orchésographie, Langres 1588 ). Du XVe siècle à la Renaissance, nous connaissons essentiellement la danse de cour. Bien danser, savoir chanter et jouer d’un instrument permettaient de tenir avec grâce et dignité son rang dans la société. La Renaissance en musique et en danse est caractérisée par l’introduction dans le registre courtois de formes et d’éléments populaires. C’est ainsi qu’une part importante est accordée aux rondes, facteur de convivialité et de cohésion sociale. Les traités du XVe siècle (Ebréo, Piacenza, manuscrit de Marguerite d’Autriche) et ceux du XVIe siècle (Negri, Caroso, Arbeau…) offrent les premières notations des pas et mouvements de danse. Deux formules répondront aux besoins des stagiaires, débutants ou initiés:

         - Les bases de la danse de la Renaissance française seront enseignées à chacun des stages suivant le répertoire de Thoinot Arbeau,  ( branle double, branle simple, branle coupé, branle morgué, branle gay, gavotte, pavane, gaillarde et volte...).

L’atelier chorégraphique s’attachera à l’étude du style et à l’expression esthétique des danses de la Renaissance italienne. La mise en espace du mouvement s’appuiera, soit sur des créations, soit sur des reconstitutions d’époque telles que: Basse danse Reale (Domenico), basse danse Cupido (Guglielmo), Leggiadra Marina, Lo Spagnoletto, Amor Costante Spagnoletta, Laura Suave...

Note:  

Nei manoscritti "dell’arte del danzare" del '400 sono conservate teorie, coreografie e talvolta musiche dalle quali è possibile ricostruire le danze di corte italiana. I precettori dell’epoca infatti codificarono le danze in trattati tecnici e pratici che ancora oggi si trovano nei manoscritti delle varie biblioteche del mondo.

Crediamo che questo workshop di danza di corte rappresenti un’ottima occasione per conoscere lo stile e le regole stabilite dai maestri italiani del '400 e far rivivere il Rinascimento sulla nostra pelle. È possibile, infatti, scoprire la cultura dell’epoca rinascimentale non solo tramite la pittura, l’architettura e la musica, ma anche attraverso la danza facendo uso del proprio corpo. La particolarità del workshop è rappresentata dall’uso di testi originali dell’epoca, la cui ricostruzione e rielaborazione sono il frutto di ricerche e studi costanti di Chieko Ono, oltre a rappresentare un’assoluta novità.

Il workshop, organizzato dalla Compagnia di danza Belreguardo, è rivolto a tutti: professionisti del settore, principianti e semplici appassionati che vogliono condividere insieme la gioia del danzare. Ai partecipanti non è richiesta alcuna preparazione specifica.

La Compagnia di danza Belreguardo è stata fondata nel 1993 ad Assisi, dove ha tuttora sede, e realizza spettacoli e corsi che uniscono danza, musica e recitazione. La Compagnia si è esibita presso luoghi storici celebri in Italia e all’estero.

Un dettagliato resoconto delle attività è disponibile nel sito ufficiale della compagnia: www.belreguardo.it

Chieko Ono è laureata in Giappone, vive fra Assisi (PG) e Guardea (TR) ed è direttrice dell’Associazione culturale Il Convivio. Ha fondato la Compagnia di Danza Belreguardo nel 1993. La sua attività principale è la ricerca filologica finalizzata alla ricostruzione e alla valorizzazione della danza italiana del XV e XVI secolo partendo dall’analisi di documenti originali dell’epoca.
Conduce laboratori di danza di corte italiana in Italia e all’estero (Australia, Giappone, USA e Svizzera). Ha svolto diverse conferenze frutto dello studio comparato della danza antica in Oriente e Occidente. Ha tradotto il libro La danza giapponese di Tamotsu Watanabe (Ed. Ali & No, 2001). Ha prodotto il CD Gloria et Malum – musiche della danza italiana del Quattrocento (Micrologus-Belreguardo, 2008). Scrive per la rivista Tohoku Art and Culture Society (articolo La danza e l'arte italiana del quindicesimo secolo: opere d'arte in movimento, Danza italiana del 15° secolo, Tohoku Art and Culture Society n. 17, 2012).

Call for Contributions Mapping Dance and Dance Teaching: Past(s), Present and Future(s)

As part of the Royal Academy of Dance centenary, and in celebration of the Faculty of Education’s 21st anniversary the Faculty of Education of the Royal Academy of Dance will be hosting an international conference Mapping Dance and Dance Teaching: Past(s), Present and Future(s).  As a leader in dance education and training, and with a track record in delivering pioneering conferences in London (2009, 2013), Sydney, (2016), Brisbane (2018) and Melbourne (2020), the Royal Academy of Dance continues its legacy of bringing together stakeholders from the fields of dance performance, dance education, dance training and associated interdisciplinary domains. In September 2020, the Royal Academy of Dance will be welcoming to London dance professionals, practitioners, educators, researchers, dance teachers, historians, musicologists and scholars to discuss, debate and contemplate past, present and future potentialities of dance and dance teaching. 

The conference aims to address (but is not limited to) the following themes:

  • Dance as art, dance as education, dance as inclusive practice; 
  • Local and global trends, practices and expectations of dance as a performance art and dance as education and training; 
  • The role of past models of dance teacher training and education in relation to current day practices and expectations; 
  • Technologies and the impact on past, present and emerging practices in the learning and teaching of dance; 
  • The influence of dance heritage in today’s rapidly evolving dance ecologies; 
  • The influence and impact of dance science research on dance performance, training and teacher education programmes; 
  • The role of interdisciplinary training to support the learning, teaching and performance of dance; 
  • Global perspectives on the role and impact of dance competitions in the training and education of children, adolescents and young adults.

 
Paper presentations should be 20 minutes in length, and practical demonstrations 45 minutes in duration. Proposals for panels and roundtable discussions of 60 minutes are also welcome.
We also encourage expressions of interest from Early Career Researchers and postgraduate students/researchers, and dance practitioners/teachers wishing to present their work in a supportive environment.
Submissions: Presenters should submit an abstract (200 word maximum) of the proposed paper, practical demonstration or panel presentation, accompanied by a biography (100 words maximum) and full contact details (affiliated institution, email, telephone) to the Programme Committee at conference2020@rad.org.uk  by no later than Friday 20th December 2019.
