Creating music with others leads to a sense of communion and connection that is unique to music-making. This six-week course is aimed at people with some musical experience* who would like to develop skills and interests by embarking on a journey of co-creation with other like-minded folk.
We will:
explore creating and performing through inclusive community music activities
explore ways to develop musical ideas, focusing in particular on arranging and improvising
explore aspects of music such as melody, chords and harmony, basslines, rhythm and texture
explore aspects of making music together such as practising, rehearsing and performing,
explore aspects of creating and developing ideas through refining, crafting and sharing,
There will be technical assistance and guidance to stimulate, inspire and assist.
An Open Mic night will happen after the course and participants of this course will be welcome to share their music.
