We will deepen the Swedish repertoire from different regions of Sweden, through a research of style (phrasing, bowing, ornamentation, footwork), sound work and ensemble playing. We will be particularly interested in the supports and accents to integrate into our playing to make people dance. In parallel to our workshop, a Swedish dance workshop will take place (https://adem.ch/fr/cours/atelier-de-danse-suedoise). For those musicians who wish to do so, an exchange between musicians and dancers will be organized on the same Sundays in the early afternoon, where the musicians will be able to play for the dance, dance by themselves, and discuss with the dancers.
The traditional Swedish music is mostly fiddle music, but other instruments are welcome: nyckelharpa, cello, viola, clarinet, flute, accordion...
Jenny Demaret is a French nyckelharpist and violinist. She trained in traditional music at various schools in Sweden, then at the Conservatoire de Limoges. She holds a DEM (Diplôme d'Études Musicales) in traditional music and a DE (Diplôme d'Etat) in music teaching. In addition to her teaching activities, she plays in various traditional music groups for concerts, balls and dance workshops.

Héloïse Fracheboud
Yodeling is the cry that becomes a melody, sometimes nostalgic and contemplative, sometimes joyful and festive, it can be "raw" as well as very sophisticated, with the same purpose: to express oneself, to share a part of what moves us, to materialize the unspeakable.
