About the event
Everyone is a composer! Whether you have a musical background or not, you are a composer. This interactive workshop led by Harmeet Kaur Virdee, will use creative composition methods to show and inspire participants that they can compose music. There will be a table with arts supplies, and other materials for participants to create a visual composition/graphic score.
In the first half of this interactive workshop participants will create their musical compositions with guidance from the workshop facilitators. In the second half participants’ visual compositions will be performed and interpreted by PALS Quartet (Harmeet - bass, Ru Ha - sax, Noah Franche-Nolan - piano, Karl DeJong - drums). Composers will be invited to give any directions to the quartet and join in the performance of their piece.
This event is open to all ages, and a background or experience with music is not required. Children 13 and under must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
