We'll work on learning the tune and playing it well, with attention to phrasing and articulation. We'll talk a lot about how to make the music danceable-- both how to give attention to fitting the music with the choreography, and how to just make people want to dance! We'll talk about energy and drive as well as beauty and spaciousness. We'll talk about how to build an energy arc over the course of the dance and how to use simple tricks to create elements of excitement and surprise for the dancers. We'll talk about ensemble ideas such as harmonies, chords, and how to create variations on the melody.
