Historical Dance Symposium
Burg Rothenfels am Main
The music ensemble
A particular highlight of the symposium is the conference’s own music ensemble. Under the direction of the early music specialist Walter Waidosch, these musicians – all experienced dancers – accompany workshops, compact performances and dance evenings. As a result, the ensemble enables the presentation of previously unpublished and unrecorded material, advises on musical questions and, with its lively interpretations, is a substantial part of the success of the various contributions. The climax of the conference, the festive ball on Saturday evening, would be inconceivable without its inspiring playing.
