Benedetti Foundation
Since January 2023, I have been a part of the Benedetti Foundation Workshop Ambassador scheme. During this mentor scheme we have weekly discussions about leading workshops in the community and have a workshop tool kit.
This is just a series of notes for me to remember...
Here are some tools in my kit:
Graphic score notation - listen to a piece of music - draw it - discuss it - the use of colours.
When introducing yourself, say a colour as well to reflect on how you're feeling.
Rubber chicken, body percussion can be complex.
Often linking music to visual art creates a more tangible link to the music.
Embodying music rather than 'just' playing it.
'deep down in my soul' - good tune
Cathy Berberian's Stripsody - WORKS SO WELL!!
Use the percussion trolley - reuse remake, draw the sounds, create a jam session. 1,2,3,4 lets jam!
