Swedish music workshop
Jenny Demaret
Europe | Instruments & repertories
We will deepen the Swedish repertoire from different regions of Sweden, through a research of style (phrasing, bowing, ornamentation, footwork), sound work and ensemble playing. We will be particularly interested in the supports and accents to integrate into our playing to make people dance. In parallel to our workshop, a Swedish dance workshop will take place (https://adem.ch/fr/cours/atelier-de-danse-suedoise). For those musicians who wish to do so, an exchange between musicians and dancers will be organized on the same Sundays in the early afternoon, where the musicians will be able to play for the dance, dance by themselves, and discuss with the dancers.
The traditional Swedish music is mostly fiddle music, but other instruments are welcome: nyckelharpa, cello, viola, clarinet, flute, accordion...

Bandonéon
Prochaines dates : 30 septembre, 27 et 28 octobre, 18 novembre, 9 décembre
Victor Hugo Villena
Le bandonéon est un instrument polyphonique qui permet également des polyrythmies avec un jeu des mains indépendantes. Par conséquent, les possibilités harmoniques, de timbre, de vibratos, d’articulations et de dynamiques deviennent immenses.
