Hellerau 100: an Image Gallery and a Summary by Madeleine Duret
Find more images of the event on the MDW’s website
Jaques-Dalcroze lived and taught in Hellerau, near Dresden, between 1911 and 1914. These four intensive years established the international recognition of Eurhythmics not only as a method for musical education, but also as a method for the education of the human being through the art.
To celebrate that anniversary, the Association of Hellerau, under the impulse of Christine Straumer, organised a meeting for rhythmicians.
From September 1 to 4 2011, there were about 200 students and teachers, from many countries, who shared their experiences in attending classes, presentations, performances.
It is always emotional to be in that special place. After the dramatic events of the History, the buildings recover little by little their original functions. The Great Hall, well restored, is technically equipped for artistic events.
Congratulations and thanks to Christine Straumer and her collaborators. They worked very hard for the realisation of the project, bringing it to a great success.
Our next meeting will be in Geneva in 2015, for the centenary of the Institut, and the 150th birthday of Emile Jaques-Dalcroze. We will all be there!
