Attention Musicians! Don’t miss this amazing opportunity!

Coming up this coming weekend is the Bach and Beyond: Improv and Composition Workshop. If you are an intermediate level student (approximately 8th grade level, you’ll want to be comfortable with your instrument) through to professional musicians (we’ll have 2 groups), this workshop is for you. If this is not you, but you know someone that would fit that description, please share this with them!

You will have the opportunity to work with brilliant world class musicians Dinuk Wijeratne and Nick Halley, all in a friendly and educational setting. This is a pilot program, and we would love for you to be a part of shaping this project for future musicians from all over North America. This will be an inspiring project, with lots of great local musicians participating. You’ll be able to decide if there’s one area that you’d like to focus on, and get particular attention in that area if you choose.

Check out the full listing for more info on how it will work HERE

If you are not able to attend all 3 days, or are unable to pay the suggested fee, we’d still like to open this project up to you. If you’d like to be a semi-auditor, please also contact us. Email [email protected] to sign up.
