About this Event

WHO?

Calling all music-makers from any musical background who wish to play, connect, experiment and exchange through music. Aimed at people who are comfortable with creating in-the-moment music, or willing and excited to have a go. All instruments and voices are welcome.

WHAT?

An invitation to explore in-the-moment, collaborative music-making.

We are Liz, Phoebe and Emma, three musicians in Brighton, London and Leeds each inspired by vocal improvisation and Musicians Without Borders principles. After a year and a half of restriction and isolation, we want to create space for musicians to come together and play, making music from scratch.

From experimental soundscapes to groove-led songs, we are fascinated by what it takes to make spontaneous music-making tight, dynamic, and meaningful. We’ll explore leading and shaping in-the-moment music, finding the balance between conductor-led and individual creative expression.

You will have the chance to make stuff up, lead others, follow other parts, harmonise, experiment with different ways of approaching your instrument, try new instruments, co-create conducting language, play in smaller and larger groups, listen, dance, enjoy, and more.

Focussing on musical nourishment, inspiration, and connection, these spaces are lightly facilitated, with an emphasis of confidence-building, exploration, and fun!

BOOKING / MORE INFO

We want everyone to be able to come to this event if they want to without finances being a barrier. However, we need to make sure costs are covered, and the workshop is 3 1/2 hours long, which is amazing and includes an array of instruments, at least 2 facilitators from around the UK, tea facilities and a spacious welcoming venue (with radiators - but please bring cushions for extra comfort)!!

We have devised levels so hopefully everyone can make it. If you are able to pay more for the ticket, that would really help us open up access to everyone.

Please let us know if you want to come, but this pricing system is not inclusive for you currently.

Levels of tickets available:

Standard entry - £25

Inclusive entry - £20

Subsidising Others' entry - £30

All Three Dates entry - £55

Volunteer entry - £10 (Please email before hand if you want to do this)

There are a few spaces for volunteers to help out before and after the event for subsidised tickets. You will help with setting up and down, making tea, filming and photography and be there at 12.30 (30 mins before the start).

Get in touch to ask any questions!
