Middle Eastern Dance Middle Eastern Music Did You Know... Introduction ... FAQS Frequently Asked Questions All About Middle Eastern Dance, Movement, Styles and Costumes text by By Lisa Paulson Introduction The Music Middle Eastern music can sound strange at first to American ears, because the notes of the scales often lie only a quarter-tone apart, rather than a half-step. What sounds like dissonance are actually extremely subtle differences in tone. Other characteristics include complex rhythms, use of improvisation and ornamentation, and a call-and-response form. (Click here for more information) The Dance The dancer literally embodies the music, as different body parts move to different rhythms. The dancer’s job is to increase the audience’s awareness of the music, while at the same time expressing the emotions behind it. The Groove When it all works together, Middle Eastern music and dance are virtually inseparable art forms - the music drives the dance, while the dancer simultaneously influences the musicians. Many times, the dancer and the musicians are improvising around a central theme, similar to American jazz musicians. The Audience The audience is the final piece of the puzzle, adding the sense of celebration and spontaneity that brings the performance to life.
