Direction RITA MENDES

Which is the first thing that comes to your mind when it comes to play violin? Scratched sounds, many hours of study, an extremely difficult task reserved for persons with unusual talent. The desire of de-dramatise this myth, providing a direct contact with the instrument, is the starting point of the project Violinos em Festa (Violins in Party). It consists on a workshop oriented by a violinist, where the participants – with the help of games and activities – might get a little more knowledge about the violin and, all together, play in a small improvised orchestra.

The Gambozinos plunged into the music of Bach. They picked up different melodies by Bach, and in another leap they brought them to the Music Days. We will be able to play and sing these melodies, following the Gambozinos in this journey of rhythm and harmony, crossing Bach’s age with the present time.

In this workshop we will find three scientists-musicians investigating the sound spreading... Did you know that sounds fly? Where tones go after we listen to them?

We’re going to become invisible through experiences with water or graphic sounds we recorded in our mini-studio.

"How can a musician assign to each piece he performs his own feeling […] if he does not know how to determine the time and the nature of each time measure […] contained in the piece? To get these features essential to a good performance, the musician must study diligently all kinds of dances." (J. Ph. Kirnberger (1721-1783), pupil of J. S. Bach) We will step in an 18th century ballroom and dance at the sound of live music performed by musicians. By learning some of the dances in the age of Bach, we will understand better and admire even more his music.

place ESPAÇO CORETO

The University of Lisbon's culture side has been acquiring impact and relevance within the community, and the University choirs has been playing a major role in our country's musical development. The existence of a children chorus connected to the University (CIUL) is an unseen event in our country. The chorus is composed by children between 6 and 12 years old, its work being ruled by a high level of artistic demand, integrating voice, body expression and dramatics.

A percussion ensemble consisting of five youngsters whose average age is 14 years old. This group has led to another, composed by eight elements whose average age is 10 years old. The idea that music has a very strong entertaining component which can be explored has been in the origin of this project.
