About this exposition

Name : Rosa Welker Main subject : Viola Research coaches : Patrick Schenkius and Arno Willekes Title of research: What can be the role of the viola in Senegalese music ? Summary of Results: This research involves a possible viola’s role in Senegalese music including some knowledge on Senegal, African music and Senegalese instruments. Viola can have two functions in this musical style: melodic and harmonic. These latter are explained through ideas and examples such as audio illustrations or musical scores. This research can help classical musicians interested in playing or discovering a rich musical culture. Biography : Born in 1991 in Switzerland, Rosa Welker got in touch with the musical world at six years old. After two years of musical initiation, she began to learn violin. Admitted in a special highschool program for music, she was able to focus even more on her passion, which expanded through meeting and sharing with others musicians. She started playing viola six years ago. In 2011 she entered at the Haute Ecole de Musique of Lausanne in Christine Sörensen’s class and acquired her Bachelor’s diploma in 2014. From two years she studies with Asdis Valdimarsdottir at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague.
