When we got to know that we will have to make popiela performance, I couldn’t remember when was the last time I saw something like that (Popiela – in phonogram is played song and participants just imitate or copy original player and singer)
Ideas, ideas, one training, some changes in music and ready. Our performance consisted of 3 parts:
- Nora Bumbure – Es gribu dejot bugi (original Baccara "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie"). Speed up song with singing Nora and dancig Teiksma girls
- Michael Jackson - Billie Jean. Teiksma boys and solo of our leader Jānis Ērglis
- Latvian folk song – Caur sidraba birzi gāju. Teiksma girls performance with Gints solo
P.S. Caur sidraba birzi gāju – Through silver grove I went. This dance in original is our leaders choreography for girls and symbolizes innocence, purity, fairness of girl.
I liked that.
Not sure, but seems idea came from Ziemlis – make calendar of folk dance ensembles. It was decided that in calendar will be included ensembles that in spring took part in concert Deja mazajai sirsniņai (Dance for small heart) – Daiļrade, Dancis, Līgo, Rotaļa, Teiksma, Vektors. Anyway – I was there and did what I had to do. Now waiting for the result – calendar 2010.
Each of us in day to day life do our own things – work, study, care abo0ut family etc. But in the evenings we meet in trainings and on holidays in concerts. In photo session we show something that we could all do in day to day life. We got sailing and agriculture themes.
For the sailing president of Teiksma and first lady :) organized shopt where to make the photo session. I suppose it was second part of august, cold evenings were coming closer, but we patiently posed to our photographer Ziemelis. We haven’t seen the pics, but there are some shots taken by other picture taking thing :)
For the agriculture theme needed place and “conditions” also were organized by president of Teiksma – house of his parents and potato field. Of course we also gave our hand in digging up potatoes. We finished some furrows and the photo session could start. I haven’t seen these pics, but again were taken some pics by other photographer with other picture taking thing :)
Some photos will be added later
