Forró dance

2  Followers

The word forro is used to describe a number of musical genres and dances from Brazil's Northeast region. Key elements of forró music include the accordion, triangle, and zabumba drum, although modern forró music can incorporate many other instruments. Forró has three different rythms; xote (slow), baião (medium), and arrasta pé (fast). Traditional forrólvrics were influenced by aspects of life in the Northeast such as migration and nostalgia, although today they are equally influenced by love, jealousy, and urban themes. The dances encompassed by forró take inspiration from salsa and other Caribbean dances. Forró is usually danced by couples who stand close to one another. A popular theory about the origins of 'forro' is that the name itself derives from the English phrase 'for all' as English engineers working on Brazil's Great Western Railway in the early 1900s would have organized balls 'for all'.

EARTHDANCE - Melbourne

1  Follower

Give Peace a Dance Earthdance was a worldwide collaboration of dance music promoters and artists founded in 1997 by Chris Dekker (Return to the Source). Held on the same day in over 350 locations, the global party aimed to raise funds and awareness for peace through music and creativity. Events were live-streamed harnessing new (at the time) technologies and connected by (dial up) internet, which was groundbreaking in the 90’s. Melbourne’s first Earthdance was held at the Cage in 1998 with a local DJ lineup and memorable opening of harmonic chanting by the Gyuto Monks of Tibet. The event progressed and evolved to a free daytime festival followed by a nightclub fundraiser. Earthdance Melbourne (2004) in Federation Square attracted 10,000 people and was the largest gathering globally that year. Earthdance Melbourne was a local creative collaboration with everyone donating their time and talent for free. The organisation was 100% volunteer driven and ran on donations, in kind sponsorship and pure passion. Donations were made to numerous peaceful causes. Earthdance was part of an incredible decade and encapsulates the innovation of the early dance movement, and generous spirit of the underground music community. It was a privilege to be part of it.
