HOLGER NITSHE: JUDGING CRITERIAS FOR MUSIC AND PARTNERING

Poznámky z kongresu ČSTS 2009.

Díky Anetě Horákové se s touto velice zajímavou přednáškou můžete nyní seznámit. Jedná se o docela exkluzivní záležitost, neboť Holger si nepřál být natočen takže to neuvidíte ani na oficiálním videozáznamu z kongresu.

Pokud budete mít nějaké dotazy, pište do komentářů, zkusíme to trochu vysvětlit.

HOLGER NITSHE

JUDGING CRITERIAS FOR MUSIC AND PARTNERING

THESE ARE THE TWO MAIN THINGS

JUDGING CRITERIAS FOR MUSIC:

“Musicality is the ability of responding to the sounds of the music”

Music; simply divided in…

• Melody

• Voice

• Rhythm –the most important

Rumba + Chacha > one family, Brazilien samba, Spanish – pasodoble, North America – jive

Quality of the dancer…

- hearing

- responding with the body to the right time (for teachers –understanding and explaining the music)

Quality of the judge…

-hearing

-seeing, if the couple is doing

Judging criteria:

“How to dance IN the music???”

To be in the music is the higher quality!

Quality of dancing

- in tempo (chachacha is the most difficult, rumba is the easiest)

- “on beat”

Staying on feet – on the front > future

In the central > present

On the heal > past

In the central > balanced

We never leave from past – we would be to late – only time –if we want to be late-if we use it consciously

Central part must be in control + in timing of the music

THE RHYTHM:

Dancing in tempo + rhythm (more then timing + tempo –it is a dynamical structure of timing, it is a predominant recurrent (vracející se/ opakující se)structure/ accent of the music)

The Blackpool music is melodic, not rhythmical

“Musicality comes from understanding the steps not from changing the steps”.

Result:

“The judge have to hear what the couple is doing”.

“The problem of todays music”.

Quality of showing

• Time

• The moments

First moment > feeling the moment then the moment of touch, the moment of connection

“The moments are creating sensations”.

“I do not play the notes, I play the silences between the notes”. Rubinstein > another way of feeling thing > another big quality

Judging criterias for partnering.

Who do we judge???

- male?

- female?

- the couple!!!

Small things can be very special; to dance together is the most difficult thing

The first voice supports the second voice and vice versa.

Problem: “Over-choreographed routines with messy timing”.

“Sharing emotion instead of only sharing steps”.

What do we judge?

Technical skills or/and expression?

• very funny –over-expressing emotions

An expression has a logical message

Cool face+ knowledge –it is a strong expression

Cool face+ no knowledge –it is very foolish

The outside or/and details?

Both > e.g. cooking > small details make it special

Be laud is sometimes fantastic

Significant > to have control over the time +

The individuality and authenticity of a couple (not a copy)

“Creativity starts where imitation ends”. Oscar Wilde

I want to go my own way – I am improving
