Ninfe Nereidi Danze Antiche

no in superficie per aiutare marinai e viaggiatori. Facevano parte del corteo del dio del mare Poseidone insieme ai Tritoni e venivano rappresentate come fanciulle con i capelli ornati di perle, a cavallo di delfini o cavalli marini. La danza nella cultura romana, ispirata a quella greca, era legata a riti di guerra, propiziatori o alle grandi festività in onore di un dio. C’erano danze comiche, tragiche, satiriche, pantomimiche. Alcune erano danze di folla, sfrenate e promiscue. Caratteristica peculiare di queste danze era il movimento saltato, spesso accompagnato da strumenti musicali come tamburelli e cimbali oppure da veli. Le scuole di danza, infatti, prendevano il nome di “ludi saltatorii”. Quella che veniva considerata la più nobile di tutte le danze era il cosiddetto “tripudium” ovvero la danza dei sacerdoti Salii, dedicata a Marte. Nel 2023 è nato il progetto delle Lase Etrusche, un salto indietro di qualche secolo per proporre le misteriose danze etrusche. Nuovi colori, nuovi abiti, nuove movenze e musiche per arricchire il bagaglio artistico di questo gruppo. Per info su eventi e corsi scrivere a [email protected]

The Cultural Association NEREIDES ANCIENT DANCES has been engaged since 2010 in the reconstruction of hypotheses regarding ancient dances from the Roman period and performs in historical reenactment contexts at archaeological sites, museums, and theaters. The name of the group of dancers, known as the Nereid Nymphs, is inspired by the immortal nymphs of the Mediterranean Sea, who lived in the depths but often surfaced to aid sailors and travelers. They were part of the procession of the sea god Poseidon, along with the Tritons, and were represented as maidens with hair adorned with pearls, riding dolphins or seahorses. Elegant, flexible, sometimes dressed in flowing long tunics, they often amused themselves with improvisational dances and games. Dance in Roman culture, inspired by Greek dance, was associated with war rituals, propitiatory ceremonies, or grand festivities in honor of a god. There were comical, tragic, satirical, and pantomimic dances. Some were crowd dances, unrestrained and promiscuous. A peculiar characteristic of these dances was the leaping movement, often accompanied by musical instruments such as tambourines and cymbals, or veils. Dance schools were actually called "ludi saltatorii." The dance considered the noblest of all was the so-called "tripudium," the dance of the Salian priests dedicated to Mars. In 2023, the project of the Etruscan Lases was born, a leap back in time to present the mysterious Etruscan dances. New colors, new costumes, new movements, and music enrich the artistic repertoire of this group. For information on events and courses, please write to [email protected].
