Hello Cello! A playful exploration of sound and movement

Join Bela Emerson and their cello, Lily V, for a semi-structured exploration of improvised music/sound, and dance/movement. An opportunity to release your thoughts, drop into your senses, and let your body lead your movement.

The intentions for the session are:

• being curious about sound and movement
• focusing on listening
• self-attunement - how does the music make you feel?

The session is for anyone aged 16+ - you don't need to be a confident dancer, and no-one will make you do anything you don't want to do. The emphasis is on nervous system regulation and wellbeing, through a gentle invitation to creativity.

Tickets are offered on a donation basis - if you feel you would benefit from / enjoy the session and finances are tight, please make a donation (£5 suggested donation) instead of buying a ticket.
This workshop builds on Bela's 11-year professional community music practice, as well as her experience of playing / moving for and with Contact Improvisation and 5 Rhythms (Arts Council England -funded 2023-24), and 20+ years of professional performing with Lily V, electric cello, and an array of guitar pedals.
Hello Cello! is part-funded by Arts Council England.
