Sound and Silence, music improvisation workshop – Nick Sorensen

This workshop is designed to explore the relationship between sound and silence and to encourage collaborative music making. Starting with simple clapping exercises participants will learn how to develop a sense of rhythm. This will lead to creating soundscapes using a range of different sound sources.

Bring your own musical instrument (or object that makes a sound) if you can. A range of shakers, percussion instruments and whistles will be available.

No previous musical knowledge or training is required.
