Listening to sound and silence

Exercises and games lead the participants to experiences with sound and silence.

We explore and discover it’s quality and pose the following questions:

How do sounds arise?  What effects do sounds have? What does silence sound like? How can we express ourselves with sounds? How does harmony arise? When do things sound disturbing?

By improvising we can all experiment with sounds, develop ideas and inspire each other. These experiences lead to more creative and expressive instrument playing.

This workshop is in collaboration with the Feldenkrais- Practitioner Annegret Lucke
