Code B4** Dancer – Drummer Communication & How to dance with Drum Solo
This workshop bridges the gap between the two diciplines. Students will learn how interpret sound into movements by aligning body parts and motions with drum sounds and riffs. Once the movements-to-sound correspondence is established, students will prepare to perform to drum solos. The six-part drum-solo will be explained, theme by theme. Students will then perform to any combination of these 6 majors drum solo themes. Students will learn how to both lead and follow the drummer by mainting the common language. Improvisation skills will be encouraged, and the daunting prospect of dancing to a LIVE drum solo will be demystified. This dance workshop can also be configured to include drummers as well.
