Welcome back Sounds Unheard Members. We hope you’re feeling ready to get creative, because we have some fantastic activities coming up in Term 2!
In May Speak Percussion will be in the studio with director Clare Britton and visual artist Cyrus Tang for the creative development of ‘Assembly Operation’, an exciting new work premiering in August, and we’ve just announced that the 2017 School Holiday Intensive will be running in the next school holidays in July.
This year’s School Holiday Intensive is all about creating and bringing new works to life, and we’ll be exploring the roles of performer, composer, producer and director. Twelve exceptional young musicians from across Victoria will work with internationally renowned composer Liza Lim and Speak’s 2017 Bespoke Composition Fellow Jeanette Little on the development of two new works in this exciting and immersive program. Applications close June 16 and places are limited, so early applications are encouraged!
