Metamorphoses - A Midsummer Night's Dream

Classes with Pia Brocza

Pia Brocza

Morning class

Pia’s morning class focuses on animal metamorphoses – drawing on Telemann’s “Grillen-Symphonie”, TWV 50:1. Based on choreography by Louis Guillaume Pécour, we will create an “insect-like” dance to the first two movements of this suite – somewhat lively and capricious!

Afternoon class

The ‘Cricket Symphony’ is also on the programme for the afternoon class, with a lively dance to the 3rd movement – presto!
