C5 Greek dance rhythms

level 2

Niki Tsambra (GR)

We will explore simple rhythms (2/8, 3/8, 2/4 etc.) and compound rhythms (5/8, 7/8, 6/8, 9/8, 11/8, characteristic in traditional and contemporary Greek music). 
We will approach the music and rhythm through movement, dancing, singing and body instruments.
Hand Drums, Bass drums, toumpeleki, sistrums, claves, tambourines etc. will be available for us to enjoy and feel free to play the above rhythms!
Let’s not forget the unity in Greek traditional music: Dance-Song-Instruments.
So, bring your bamboo pipe as well!
