The first lesson of ten to learn Habanera from Bizet in Flamenco fell on the last week at Falla Flamenco Arts Studio this afternoon. I was happy that I made it back to the flamenco dance school in October and performed four parts of sevillanas at Falla Flamenco Xmas Party.
Starting from the first of October, I decided to perform Habanera, not knowing how to articulate the lyrics in French in singing till I could memorize the complete libretto by heart now. On top of that, I shall be able to dance Habanera with a flamenco fan in 2012.
Lesson One (12/20/2011)
L'amour est un oiseau rebelle, RLRL(8 beats moving forward)
Que nul ne peut apprivoiser, RLRLR (8 beats twist--slow slow quick quick slow)
Et c'est bien in vain qu'on l'appelle, LRLR (8 beats moving to the left)
S'il lui convient de refuser. LRLRL (8 beats twist--slow slow quick quick slow)
Rien n'y fait, RL (4 beats moving to the right)
menace ou prière. RLR (4 beats twist--slow quick quick quick)
L'un parle bien, LR (4 beats moving to the left)
l'autre se tait. LRL (4 beats twist--slow quick quick quick)
Lesson Two (12/27/2011)
Et c'est l'autre que je préfère. (8 beats turning to the back)
Il n'a rien dit mais il me plait. (8 beats moving to the left)
L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! (16 beats turning to the front)
Lesson Three (1/3/2012) Feet movement
L'amour est enfant de Bohême, (8 beats facing to the right RLRLRLRL (Forward Stomp, forward drag, forward stomp, forward drag, back stomp, back ball, forward stomp, forward ball)
Il n'a jamais jamais connu de loi. (8 beats facing to the right RLRLRLR, Long Forward Stomp, forward drag, back stomp, back ball, forward stomp, forward ball, turn to the left)
Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime. (8 beats facing to the left LRLRLRLR, Forward Stomp, forward drag, forward stomp, forward drag, back stomp, back ball, forward stomp, forward ball)
Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! (8 beats facing to the left LRLRLR---L, Long Forward Stomp, forward drag, back stomp, back ball, forward stomp, forward ball, twist, twist, twist, back ball, facing to the front)
Lesson 4(1/10/2012) Hands Movement
Si tu ne m'aimes pas, si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime,
Mais si je t'aime, si je t'aime, prends garde à toi!
L'oiseau que tu croyais surprendere
Battit de l'aile et s'envola.
L'amour est loin, tu peux l'attendre.
Tu ne l'attends puis, il est là.
Tout autour de toi, vite vite,
Il vient, s'en va, puis il revient.
Tu crois le tenir, il t'evite.
Tu crois l'eviter, il te tient.
L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour!
L'amour est enfant de Bohême,
Il n'a jamais jamais connu de loi.
Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime.
Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi!
Si tu ne m'aimes pas, si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime,
Mais si je t'aime, si je t'aime, prends garde à toi!
