Description
Summary:This paper aims to derive musical characteristics through dance choreography that will give shape to one of the movements, the Allemande. The study aims to establish a framework by investigating the dance steps to generate musical interpretation. The objective is to give specifications or indicators or markings by adding slurs and accents and providing the tempo or tempo range to evoke the characteristics of the dance within the keyboard suite. The methods involve a review of the literature and an inquiry to consider the use of dance steps or choreography to refine the characteristics of the pieces performed.
