Bocchi's Rock

Bocchi the Rock is a very excellent show for a lot of reasons, but today I want to talk about just one of them, an aspect that is pretty important for a music show, it's performances. And how the physicality and movement of those performance scenes can often enhance those scenes by emphasizing characterization, emotions, and even tell stories all on its own. 00:00 intro 00:38 story context and main idea 01:34 movement in music (1) 02:34 the peggies 04:39 episode 6, contrast of physicality 06:13 episode 5, physical assertion 08:02 movement in music (2) 09:22 episode 8, physical assertion, in unison 11:24 episode 12, playing as one 14:52 outro ----- Sources: MENC Handbook of Research on Music, Movement, and Learning: Volume 2: Applications, edited by Richard Colwell and Peter R.Webster (113,114), https://tinyurl.com/3ekv4trp The Oxford Handbook of Music Psychology, edited by Susan Hallam, Ian Cross, and Michael Thaut (369, 371), https://tinyurl.com/ybtc798x The peggies performing Centimeter:    • the peggies「センチメートル」Live from SOUND BASE V...   The peggies performing Ashiato:    • the peggies「足跡」Live from SOUND BASE Vol.2 ...   One more additional interview here, I didn't use this, but it has some staff interviews and some of the team members express, the same ideas I do, that their performances and the movement and animation done in them are loaded with intentionality, https://blog.sakugabooru.com/2022/11/... ----- All main music used is from the Bocchi the Rock and Amanchu soundtracks, and Yutaka Hirasaka's into the blue.
