MUSIC WORKSHOPS: Time-structured Scores
Friday 27th November and Saturday 28th November 2009.
Following the brilliant ’Insomnia Poems’ performance at MEANTIME in January, composer Pete M Wyer is running two evening’s workshops exploring time-coded scores.
Pete M Wyer’s system of ’Time Structured Mapping’ has been used to create improvised musical pieces for all sorts of musicians, from full professional orchestras through to world musicians and school-children and was used for the 60 minute work ’Insomnia Poems’ commissioned by BBC Radio 3 earlier this year.
The system is intended to enable sometimes large and often disparate groups to explore improvisation. Pete, along with musicians Robert Perry and Chris Cundy will be working to develop a workshop form whereby entire pieces can be created from scratch, working together.
In order to participate it is useful to be able to bring an instrument (including voice) that you feel reasonably comfortable with, you do not need to have great mastery, the aim will be to explore using whatever combinations appear.
Workshops: £5.00 - places are limited, please book by email - info@meantime.org.uk
