IMPROVVISI

Intensive Lab. + Performance
Improvvisare con la musica dal vivo è sperimentare la conoscenza 
7,8,9,10 Aprile 2023 @ Spazio Seme – Arezzo

From laboratory to the performance city specific
Con Giorgio Rossi (danza) e Michele Marchesani (musica)

Somatic awakening and Intro. to the Contact Improv. Jam

with Leonardo Lambruschini & Consuelo Pacheco

 

The laboratory was born from the will and desire of Giorgio Rossi, choreographer and dancer, together with the musician Michele Marchesani to approach the infinite world of improvisation to give the possibility of broadening creative horizons, seeking a more complete context where dance, music, gesture, word and game can remain free and harmoniously united to the emotions, feelings and experiences of each one, the real ones as well as the imagined ones. The expression of the body, the creative movement are the rediscovery of movement and its energy, even more primordial; in relation not so much and only to the development of physical skills but:

as the possibility of expanding one’s own listening experiences, of rediscovering and serene acceptance of a forgotten and yet real body
as a poetic experience in improvisation in which the rediscovered body can act as an expression of one’s emotions and inner energies, helping the growth of a “language of emotions” (in spite of oneself)
as an experience that allows you to increase the narration of the body in order to try to get closer to self-knowledge and to a new way of communicating with others
Dance produces sound and energy and this must be developed and placed in the narrative of the moment.
You are not only moving but discovering knowledge at the same time.

“Every instant is a pretext for amazement and imagination. Dance is practicing the sensual observation of what is around me, life. Senses, memories, the change of colors, sounds, smells, flavors in time and space feed my danced gestures A game of perceptions and elaborations on the present that awakens ideas to enrich our being and nourish life more intensely”.
George Rossi

 

bio Giorgio Rossi

He was the co-founder in 1984 of the Compagnia Sosta Palmizi and of the subsequent Association of which he is still co-artistic director together with Raffaella Giordano.

Giorgio Rossi, as E. Satie would say‚ “is a dancing mammal”. At the age of 4, seeing the Swiss clown Dimitri, he understood that the theater was his life. He owes his artistic fortune to having been able to attend the works of great masters (Kantor, Brook, Bausch, Carlson) and, with some ‚he learned the scenic art‚ both as a pupil and as an interpreter. He collaborates with artists from other fields, such as: P. Fresu, B. Bertolucci, T. Gylliam, S. Benni, P. Turci, L. Poli, D. Riondino, P. Rossi, Banda Osiris, G. Mirabassi, M. Rabbia, M. Baliani and many others; he participates as an author dancer in the transmission Come away with me by R. Saviano and F. Fazio. In 2013 he curated all the movements of Bizet’s Carmen with the Piazza Vittorio Orchestra. With his shows, over 30 productions, he has traveled the world thanks to the universality of the poetic art of movement.
In recent years he has created three shows aimed at a new generation of audiences (Con il naso all’insu, Costellazioni. Ready, set… space !, Fantastic exercises). In 2019 he is curator of the training and creative residency at the École des Sables in Dakar for the exchange project “Italie, Culture, Afrique”. He has collaborated with the El Grito company both as an interpreter (Gran Circo Rossini) and as a choreographer (Magnet Man). In 2021 and 2022 he is engaged as author and interpreter together with R. Goretti and M. Bonechi for Andrea Pazienza’s production The Last Days of Pompeo.

Giorgio Rossi has been carrying out for many years, in Italy and abroad, a sensitive activity linked to training in which workshops and collaborations with dance, theater and circus schools contribute to the diffusion of dance art.

 

Bio Michele Marchesani

He is a Shiatsu teacher, a Contact Improvisation dancer, a musician and a researcher of the dynamics of perception and movement. From studying the piano and guitar he passes after a few years to songwriting composition, recording two albums, and performing in numerous musical formations. Fundamental for him the encounter with the theater and dance for which he recorded several tracks until he became passionate almost exclusively to the improvisational process, which is today his main interest. Integrates, practices and writes about the relationship between sound and body in motion, improvises with dancers and actors, intersects sound with natural environments, creates and designs literary/musical performances and develops his own particular style of using electronics as an expressive tool.
