14 tracks of percussion music for Modern Dance Classes
From the CD... "Body and Drum by Melanie Aceto and Joe Thomas comprises 14 percussion improvisations for modern technique class. This music is ideal for classes based on the techniques of Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman offering many 3/4 meters emphasizibng the quality of fall and recovery. The music on this CD is for a complete modern dance class including floor and standing warm-ups, phrase work, and small and large jumps. Each track has a clear 2 or 4 measure introduction with the tambourine often holding the downbeat. Joe has been playing for Melanie's technique classes at the University of Buffalo and Dance Masters of America since 2007. They have developed a breadth of musical material ideal for classes based in the Humphrey-Weidman movement style. This CD includes 3/4 rhythms for leg swings, body swings, and a track to accompany the Weidman hop series."
