Bebop (dance) - frwiki.wiki

For the article of the same name, see Bebop.

Ve-bop , or "bop", is a jazz dance couple born in the cellars of Saint-Germain-des-Pres in Paris after liberation between 1945/46.

At this time, young people and artists (Jacques Prevert, Roger Vadim, Roger Vaillant ...) meet in modest bistros in Saint-Germain-des-Prés to have fun, to forget the horrors of World War II. The dancers were nicknamed "the basement rat" after the troupe formed by Yano Merry and running on swings, boogie-woogie, New Orleans jazz and traditional jazz (Sidney Bechet, Claude Luther...). Their dance of swing and boogie woogie will be called be-bop .

The cellars of Saint-Germain-des-Prés where it all began...

• Le Caveau de Lorientais , open window in the basement of the Hotel Des Carmes, Rue des Carmes.
• Le Tabou , a bistro at 32/33 rue Dauphine, opened April 11, 1947. The group Grrr formed by Boris Vian and his brothers perform there and the place is frequented by the existentialists Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, Yves Montand and Simone Signoret, Jean-Louis Barrault and Madeleine Renaud, Juliette Greco, Anne-Marie Casalis, Alexander Astruk ...
• Club Saint-Germain, which parades the greatest musicians of the day: Charlie Parker, Kenny Clarke, Count Basie, Errol Garner, Duke Ellington. Boris Vian launches bebop presented in Paris on February 1948 years old, during the famous Dizzy Gillespie concert at the Salle Pleyel.
• Vieux Colombier, where Sidney Bechet performs and is frequented by Raymond Quenot, Giacometti, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre...
• Blue Note , etc.

In 1948, the 1- ^and World Championships at the Bebop Coliseum took place.

Be-bop and rock and roll

In June 1954, the producers of the film Graine de Violence came to find a troupe of Jit preventers at Vie Colombier for a private movie screening and discovery of this new music from America, rock and roll from Bill Haley and his Comet.
The same evening, the press was called to Vieux Colombier and announced a jet-bop in a rock and roll number that was actually their regular bebop.
There was Juliet Greco, Eddie Constantine and other artists... all came out to dance.
After 1954, the World B-bop Championship held in Lyon continued every year, but was called the World Championship of ... Rock and Roll.

The dance is characterized by a rounded physique , rounded figures or helps in the trajectories of two dancers, great freedom of movement, great elegance ; there are common "figures" that we find in most dancers, but each teacher creates his own figures and gives them arbitrary names: therefore, be-bop is a dance that is difficult to qualify, as is the musical current be-bop, which was an extravagant mix of jazz. , blues and swing tones.

Various currents

In the south-east of France, the style is more fluid, closer to the ground, more slippery. The fantasies that we see more and more often in dance (lunges, throws, brushes, etc.) are all variants that signify the development of the dance at a local level. In Paris, bebop is danced more lively, more "touching".

There are different stylistic trends in be-bop, three of which are significant:

• 1°) Parisian (Saint-Germain is the most famous),
• 2°) Marseille dance (Le Bop or Be-bop jazz) is performed over 6 beats, very smoothly, at a fairly fast pace, with simplified steps for the rider (4 steps: 1-2-3-5) and 8 steps. (1-2-3 and 4-5 and 6) for a dancer who, with a lot of "slippery" steps, can perform the fast movements required for the dance.
• 3°) Lyon is the most spectacular style in boogie-influenced footwork. It is danced on a basis of 6 beats called 3-3-2 combined with 10 beats at a very fast pace up to 72 MPM or 144 BPM and is mostly danced in the New Orleans rivavela.

Where to dance be-bop today? Where it all began...

To dance be-bop, you need to visit the following establishments (not an exhaustive list..):

• In Paris, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Le Caveau de la Huchette, rue de la Huchette, a stone's throw from Notre Dame. This is a jazz cellar in the basement, the place is legendary, a live orchestra plays in front of the audience on a small platform 10 cm high, as if it is among the audience, the dance floor is small and the level of the dancers is excellent. Every evening is interesting, on weekdays it is better to dance.

Please note that basement type clubs are slowly disappearing, for example club Z , a small basement in Saint Germain, with a favorite evening, Thursday night, to the sound of vinyl records from a DJ who closed his doors in 2010. Slow Club, is another famous place in Paris, which closed its doors in 2005 when there, the orchestra made the dancers swing until the end of the night.

Today the concerts have been moved to various taverns on the Seine and the Marne, "to lose the spirit of the cellars is to lose some be-bop!"

• In Bordeaux, on the docks, the Comptoir du Jazz, through the association Rock and Swing Club, offers Be-Bop sessions at 3- ^and Sundays of the month at the Hollywood decor cinema. Outside is a nice jazz and world music club during the week.
• In Marseille and its region Be-bop is very active and several schools teach this dance: one of the most important: "Be Bop N ° 1" is in Plan de Campagne (between Marseille and Aix-en-Provence) in Marseille "Bebop forever". " in Saint-Barnabe ( 12- ^e ) ... you can also find bebop lessons in Aubagne or even in Châteauneuf-lès-Martigues.
