Myths, legends and history are mixed in Ireland's first hazy and clear impression, such as weeping love, magnificent war and eternal freedom, which makes the soul rush in the poetic wilderness of Ireland ... Let's take a look at the appreciation of the tap dance riverdance!
Riverdance's tap dance appreciation article 1 riverdance confirms this point most vividly. A forgotten dance, because a group of Irish people who love it, has gone to a wide world. More importantly, it successfully broke through the barriers of cultural convergence brought by modernization and globalization, and lived among Irish people. Everyone knows what this means. The dance of a nation will closely link this nation and make it glow with new vitality. It can be said that riverdance is not only the treasure of world dance, but also the pride of the whole Irish nation. It sets a shining example for the national art of other countries in the world struggling in globalization.
music
The plot of riverdance is full of poetry. Myths, legends and history are mixed in Ireland's first vague and clear impression, such as weeping love, magnificent war and eternal freedom, which makes people's thoughts run wild in Ireland's poetic wilderness. Here, art renders a deep background. The perfect combination of instrumental music and human voice has produced a new soul in the melody of Irish traditional music. The melodious and desolate Irish bagpipes continue the ancient feelings, and the passionate violin touches every sensitive chord, so it is once again moved by Irish culture and history. People can't help being immersed in Ireland's sadness and throbbing. There is also the flowing voice that sings like nature, just like the cool breeze in the cold morning in spring, which can clean up all the worldly clutter and troubles.
lamplight
Riverdance is unique in lighting treatment. The whole performance is based on different levels of changing blue lights, which is soft and elegant, giving the audience a feeling of being in the embrace of the sky or the sea, which is both cordial and comfortable. Coupled with red, yellow, gray and other lights, there is a sense of life jumping. For example, in the "Fire Dance" in the seventh act of the first scene in the play, the lights are getting brighter and the stage is blazing, as if countless lives are beating. Just then, a red and black shadow flashed out, bearing the rhythm of life. No, it's not just a shadow, it's a fire spirit. Slowly, the spirit of fire came out of the fire, and then the fire passed slowly, leaving only the spirit to dance in the most enchanting way. And this strong visual contrast and impact is also a kind of horror in the hearts of the audience.
scenery
The scenery of riverdance shows the plot incisively and vividly. The audience uses the sun, moon, stars, rivers, mountains, villages and other real substances with vivid life as the scenery. It not only perfectly shows the Irish people's spirit of loving nature and advocating life, but also perfectly blends the actors and the scenery. You have me and I have you. At this time, the audience not only deeply understood the ideals and contents expressed by the actors, but also had a profound life experience of being there and forgetting to return to their hometown.
dance
If the plot and music are picturesque scenery on the shore, then dance is really a "river" flowing in it. It is against the background of music and plot that tap dancing, like a pouring river, has merged into this beautiful and spectacular riverdance. The dance in "riverdance" inherits the essence of Irish folk dance, has strong national characteristics, and embraces various schools of tap dance, forming a unique tap dance performance. The Irish tap dance with tall and straight upper body is more solemn and dignified, which perfectly blends with the casual and disrespectful humor of African-American tap dance and Broadway tap dance, which also exudes confidence and freedom. And all the tap dances in "riverdance" show no less complicated percussion skills, and the uniform large-scale group dances, like rainbows, impact your sight and mind like a flood. It should be said that the dance of "riverdance" is not short of superb skills, but it has completely got rid of the superficial knowledge of showing off skills and integrated into the heavy Irish culture. It is also another sublimation that dance is perceived and recognized in appreciation. In such a simple dance and rhythm, you will suddenly get lost in a primitive and true initial emotion like a child returning to nature.
Riverdance's tap dance appreciates the dance in the second chapter. Its most conservative meaning is an art form with rhythmic movements as the main means of expression, which can express people's life, thoughts and feelings, usually accompanied by music. At first, whenever I talked about dancing, I might feel ashamed, let alone let me dance, which is tantamount to driving a duck to the shelf. I have made great progress in this field since I chose dance appreciation this semester. Although I can't dance yet, I still know something about dance, so I can't "talk about dancing" in front of others.
Choosing the course of dance appreciation not only taught me how to know and appreciate dance, but also gave me an understanding of national culture. The characteristics and distribution of Tibetan dances in China, so as to understand their religious beliefs and regional distribution. I also know a lot about some dances in European countries, such as ballet, which originated in Italy and formed in France, and has a history of more than 300 years; There is also 19 tap dance formed in the 1920s. In the process of learning tap dance, we enjoyed the famous Irish tap dance riverdance. After reading it, our body and mind were deeply shocked. We use one word to describe the mood at that time, that is "handsome", two words to describe it, that is "really handsome" and three words to describe it, that is "too handsome". At first, I thought I was very talented and learned a lot, but now I know what Jiang Lang is like. What a pity!
Tap dance originated from Broadway in the United States, which is a folk dance that combines Irish folk dance with the traditional music and dance of African people. Performers wear special tap shoes, rub and beat with their feet on the floor, and make all kinds of tap dancing sounds. Together with the dancers' beautiful dance moves, tap dancing has a unique sense of humor, humor and expressiveness, which is very artistic. I was deeply shocked by the opening momentum of riverdance. History is like a long river, flowing with wisdom, courage, life and love. I didn't go to the scene to watch riverdance. I just listened to the teacher's introduction in the dance appreciation class and began to pay attention to kicking.
In the dance appreciation class, I enjoyed the tap dance riverdance. I watched it on TV a few years ago, but I was too impetuous to calm down. After watching it for a while, I changed the channel and didn't leave a deep impression on me. In class, when the teacher played her, she suddenly felt deja vu. Taking this opportunity, I watched riverdance carefully and was immediately fascinated by tap dancing.
The dancer's passionate and delicate performance left a deep impression on me, marveling at the complicated and changeable rhythm and clear dance steps. At the same time, the soul has long lingered in the history of Irish blood and tears, and riverdance is a love tragedy, or more importantly, a history of bitter feelings of a nation. Dance embodies the deep suffering of a country and the persistent expectations of the Irish people. Because of this, the original thin dance will become a little heavy, and the original light dance will bring some historical vicissitudes. "riverdance" has given me a brand-new sensory experience, and also made my thoughts reach a deeper level than dancing.
"riverdance" takes the tap dance with Irish traditional national characteristics as the main axis, combines the passionate Spanish flamenco dance, and absorbs the essence of classical ballet and modern dance, creating a magnificent and dramatic dance. Whether it is a queue performance, solo dance or duet, the rhythm of uniform dance steps gives people a sense of movement, texture and emotion. The exquisite skills of each dancer are amazing, and the professionalism of each dancer is also awe-inspiring. The ever-changing form of dance, the unique triangle marching and the fast but silent kicking sound make the dance have a strong sense of hierarchy and penetration, giving people unprecedented visual and auditory shock. The scenery shows the plot incisively and vividly, and shows the Irish people's spirit of loving nature and advocating life incisively and vividly, so that the actors and the scenery are perfectly integrated. You have me and I have you. The performance of the Irish Philharmonic Orchestra and the beautiful voice of the choir played a finishing touch. "riverdance" is a Broadway musical song and dance feast that combines strength, movement, texture and beauty.
I especially like the superb skills and tacit cooperation between the men and women who lead the dance. The eyes of two people admiring each other can make people feel their love for dance and the joy of success. The profile of this woman is very similar to Nicole's, and the graceful facial contour is as touching as her dance. That man is Colin Dunn, the dance king who won the world championship nine times. He is an excellent dancer and outstanding in temperament. He exudes dazzling superstar light and leads you through time and space on the dazzling Broadway stage with shocking and awe-inspiring body language. The difficult movements he performed combined tap dancing and ballet to the extreme, which was really admirable. Among them, two black actors perform tap dancing freely and casually, and even compete with the dance king, which is unique.
One of the red dress soloists also left a deep impression on me. Although she is over forty years old, her figure is already fat and bloated, and she is no longer suitable for dancing in the eyes of outsiders, but she has not given up, persisted with her love for dance and stage, and danced exceptionally well and passionately, setting off a new round of climax on the stage. Her solo dance is a highlight of riverdance, which left a deep impression on the audience.
I think "riverdance" is unique in the lighting treatment. The whole performance is based on blue light and has different levels of changes. It is soft and interesting, giving the audience a feeling of being in the embrace of the sky or the sea, which is both cordial and comfortable, supplemented by various lights of red, yellow and gray, and full of life. For example, in the first and seventh acts of the play, the lights are getting brighter and the stage is in flames, as if countless lives are beating. Just then, a red and black shadow flashed out, bearing the rhythm of life. Slowly, the spirit of fire came out of the fire, and then the fire passed slowly, leaving only the spirit dancing in a very enchanting way. This strong visual contrast and impact also stirred my heart.
I love dancing very much. I like that my life is full of music and dancing. Appreciate it quietly, and you will feel that at this moment, only dance is the only thing you can hide, and your mood will ripple away with the sound of "kicking" and go straight to your inner space. A restless heart will suddenly calm down, as if it had experienced a dance climax.
Through this semester's dance appreciation, I feel that I am no longer ignorant of dance, but have my own ideas and opinions. I know I will never be a noble dancer, but I will always have a deep attachment to dance, be a dancer with a dance in my heart and wander in the world of dance. ...
Of course, I was deeply impressed by China's traditional dances, such as Drunk Drum, Soul of Qin Servant, Haitang and so on. But my favorite is riverdance.
I really like tap dancing, and I like the strong sense of rhythm. I hope I can go to the scene and watch a riverdance with my own eyes, and I hope I can learn tap dancing in the future.
In addition, I would like to talk about my views on the course of Dance Appreciation. Most of the dances the teacher talks about in class are China dances, such as Han and Tang classical dances, classical dances, folk dances and folk dances, which I think are all very good. China's national culture has been neglected. We can take this opportunity to let you feel it and learn more about our own country. National is the world's. In addition, some dances that young people like, such as street dance, should be appropriately added to increase everyone's interest in class.
