Level 3 Musicality Session during the event "It Don't Mean a Thing" in Lisbon.
Using various parts of the music and various dance elements to reflect the music.
Reviewing musical structure - Standard Form (4 eights to a phrase) and Blues Form (6 eights to a phrase).
Playing with 3 different arrangements of the same song, Sweet Georgia Brown. (Brother & Bones, Benny Goodman, and Ella Fitzgerald). Trying to reflect the overall feeling that a song transmits, and whether that means principally walking, kicking or triple stepping and in what way you might do those things.
Talking about the rhythm section and reflecting that int he way you dance - hitting every beat or emphasizing the even beats or if the rhythm section is very quiet, focusing mostly on the melody or else creating your own rhythm steps on top of the music to fill that part in.
Using different dance elements to reflect what's happening in the melody: height difference, staccato vs. legato, stretching moves, suspending rhythm, slow motion, bouncing in different ways, jazz steps.
Concrete example of Frankie Manning's change of place variation and how to change it to match the music. Girls using tuck turn as an opportunity to be musical and suggest something to the leader.
With Nejc Zupan (Slovenia) and Abeth Farag (US/Portugal)
