Super Saturday with Mezmer Society Oct 3

Edenia — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 20:49:30 GMT

North Carolina's, The Mezmer Society makes their Southern California debut at The Oasis! Join us for a weekend of "Lush Cabaret & Balkan Ruckus" including (but not limited to) belly dance, cabaret performance, Romany music, foppish occultism, unapologetically pretentious Belle Epoque café living, goodwill, bad behavior, misappropriated pop songs, and the horribly misguided notion that one can try and squeeze an entire Balkan brass band into one accordion.

Saturday, October 3 Workshops:

"Feisty Fanwork & Combinations"* ~ Special 3-hour workshop!
Noon - 3:00pm :: $45 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$50 at door

A class inspired in equal parts by Flamenco, the fine art of flirtation, and every performer's need to capture the audience. Onça's Fan Fusion is long on musicality, emotive power, attitude and upper body strength. Savor the flavor of passion as we explore the potential of every artist's indispensable tool; the Fan. This class offers sassy combinations that can be used by artists of every genre to captivate and communicate. *Most fans will work: feather fans and fan veils will be discussed, but are not usable for the purposes of class. Onça's preferred fans will be for sale at this class, or bring your own.

"Sing, Gadje, Sing"*
3:30 - 4:30pm :: $15 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$20 at door

This class is for everyone - dancers, musicians and laypersons who want to participate in making the party Happen. Come as you are to learn melodies and harmonies to several Balkan tunes that we will later sing together in the evening showcase! *No prior experience with reading, or singing music, required.

Sunday, October 4 Workshops:

"Swordwork: Swanky, Sultry & Silly"*
Noon - 2:00pm :: $35 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$40 at door

Sword is one of Onça's favorites. The synergy of a shining sword and a skilled artist is incredibly powerful. Yet, making the most of the power of the blade requires attention, respect, and a strong sense of narrative. In addition to dynamic combinations for soloists and ensembles, learn a bit about sustainable technique, history, and the care & feeding of swords. This workshop is open to all levels and suitable for artists of all genres. *Students must bring their own sword.

"Cane Dancing: Foxy or Folkloric?"*
2:30 - 4:30pm :: $35 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$40 at door

It's all how you handle the big stick. Cane, or 'Raks Assaya', is a traditional woman's dance art that offers tremendous creative expression to bellydance artists. Building on our universal vocabulary of movements, we will drill sustainable cane technique and explore versatile combos with attitude. Add spice to your style of Cabaret or Fusion with 'Raks Vaudevillia'! Great for developing both troupe precision and the theatrical face of our dance! *Some canes will be available for purchase at this class, or bring your own.

Tribal Fest’s first ever “Tribal Bellydance Jam Band”.

Here is the deal... We are trying something new this year at TF. An open dance floor with a Jam! The vision is we have a core group of players and people join in and dancers do their thing..

Introducing the “Tribal Fest Jam Band”! Jeremiah Soto of Solace, Jeff Rees from Gypsy Caravan and Mizna and August Hoerr of The Mezmer Society (see bios below)

They will take the Tribal Fest stage and invite anyone who would like to come play with them to come up. Like a great drum circle! This is your chance to come up and jam with some of the most outstanding musicians in the bellydance scene today!

Bring your drum, your zills, your mizmar WHATEVER!!! Join them on-stage and add to the sound and excitement. Don’t be shy!! When will you have the chance to do this again??!!

Everyone is welcome to join in. Dancers, do you have a hubby or partner who plays something? This is their chance to be apart of the show!

Now if THAT weren’t enough excitement, of course it is an “Open Floor Dance Time”!!

Time for all you Tribal dancers to get up and show the world that you can dance as one. Improv at it’s finest!

Doesn’t matter what “style” you do or how long you have been dancing. Come on stage, or in front of the stage for an awesome open floor with what will be the best Tribal Jam Band ever to jam on a stage.

This will go down in history!

Jeremiah Soto
Jeremiah has been composing music since 1986 and has evolved through several genres of music including Industrial, Gothic, Electronic, Contemporary World and currently Middle Eastern Dance music. Arabic percussion has always been a fascination of Jeremiah's and he has studied with renowned dumbek master Souhail Kaspar as well as learned African polyrhythms and frame drum technique from Ronnie Engel. After being in groups such as Kokuein, Eventide, and Still, Jeremiah embarked on a solo
project, thus forming Solace in 1995.
www.soundsofsolace.com/solace/

Jeff Rees
Jeff’s first exposure to learning a musical instrument was playing the accordion and clarinet as a young boy. Jeff’s music took a big turn when he joined Paulette’s newly formed tribal bellydance troupe, the Gypsy Caravan. From travels and research he started playing the zurna from Turkey, the ney and the mijwiz from Egypt, and created the distinct sound of the Gypsy Caravan band. He now plays a vast assortment of horns and percussion, also including the Egyptian rababa, the Indian shruti box, the Armenian dudek, and the Australian didgeridoo.
Playing with Gypsy Caravan, Jeff also started a new band, Mizna, who released their first CD of tribal bellydance music in 2006. Touring the world with Paulette and Gypsy has been an enormously rewarding experience, as he has had the opportunity to play with musicians and for dancers in many other states and countries. With Gypsy and Mizna, Jeff has recorded nine CDs and various films and DVDs. He has made guest appearances on several CDs outside of Gypsy, including playing with Domba, Solace, and Americanistan. Playing music is Jeff’s meditation, his passion, and his art; he plays from his heart and soul.

TRIBAL LA open stage Videos still available for purchase!

Sarah — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 22:47:56 GMT

Hey everyone!
OK this is just a quick note to say that if you danced at Tribal LA and did not order your video, you still can. I ordered mine Sunday and Lisa was really clear about how to order online and when to expect the video. The kicker is, the video arrived TWO DAYS after the event!!! I walked around the house in a fog of amazement- it really annoyed my roommates that i kept saying "I can't believe it 's here already!!!"
The quality was great, and the price- which may have turned some of you off of buying it- was totally worth it! It is only $30, part of which undoubtedly went to the quick shipping fees. It is highly unusual for me to be on here promoting a videographer, but I was really impressed, and wanted y'all to know that you won't get ripped off with an overpriced, poor quality, interminably delayed video that you can hardly bear to watch! ok- just my two cents! to get your video, go to: lisahoglan.com, just click "buy video" and enter your details(stage name, real name, phone number, date and time of performance) in the "special instructions" box. That's it! Well, see ya at the next Tribal event!!!

A series of combinations will be introduced, focusing on creating smooth and continuous lines with the body, with a few pops and locks thrown in for fun. These combinations will be put together for a short choreography. Belly dance experience is highly recommended.

About Kami:
Kami’s style is what she calls a modern fusion of an ancient dance. Although she is primarily a tribal dancer, she pulls from the various styles of belly dance that she has studied, as well as modern, hip hop, jazz, and bhangra dance. Her goal is to always be a student of dance and to constantly expand her repertoire. Kami has performed and taught internationally and is currently touring with Bellydance Superstars.

Engaging the Core - Slow and Slinky
12:00-2:00

Dive into a jar of molasses! In this workshop, we will deepen our slow, ooey-gooey moves to achieve that slinky, sultry, intoxication look and feel of Tribal Bellydance. Drawing from yoga, pilates, feldenkrais, and Deb’s personal ‘stash”, this workshop will focus on core integration, spinal articulation, and building the foundational strength and flexibility in the hips, spine, and shoulders to directly support controlled, snake-like dancing; create ‘floating upper body’ dance posture for stage; and enage in healthy backbending and lay-backs to save your low back. All this will be applied to bellydance technique, and juicy fusion combos and choreography. She has often been coined the ‘Queen of slink”. Come learn Deb’s unique tribal stylization.

Rose's Workshop:
Rocking the Core
2:30-4:30

Enhance and deepen your understanding of belly dance fundamentals with technique drills and tribal fusion combos. We will cover layering, shimmies, and up-tempo movements, great for any style of belly dance. This exciting Tribal Fusion workshop will include Rose's signature Core Integration material focused on building flexibility and targeted muscle group conditioning to improve your dancing. You will also learn a short choreography that highlights Rose's dynamic approach to contemporary belly dance.

Private lessons available!
