WHAT I LEARN ABOUT CULTURE

       

      1.-Keeping a live old traditions

SHAKESPEARE PROJECT

1-What do you know about Shakespeare?
   William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor. Known at times as the Bard of Avon (or simply the Bard), Shakespeare is considered the most important writer in the English language and one of the most celebrated of universal literature.


2-And about the music of this historical period? (I give you one clue: together, we will play two "pavans").

Around the fourteenth century the medieval culture begins to transform thanks to the first Italian humanists, turning into the classical world with new values.

The Renaissance is defined by a set of features that can be grouped into three blocks: the recovery of classical Greco-Roman culture, the appreciation of the human and the search for idea perfection.

PAVANA´S PROJECT

1- Do some research on the "pavan" (3 or 4 lines are enough).
     It is an ancient dance of Italian origin, of slow movement and in binary compass. At the end of the 16th century, the use of interpreting, after the pavana, the music of one or more dances, of an opposite nature to the first one, was introduced. In Italy, these dances that followed were known by the name of Saltarello.

2- In your own words, try to express the feeling you get listening to this music.
     These songs make me feel relaxed, calm, and they make me think about how they lived in that era acording to the music that they listen.
