Masterclasses and Workshops
COMPOSITION WORKSHOP
WITH BRYN HARRISON & JOE HOUSTON
WEDNESDAY 7 MAY, 2:00pm-4:00pm
Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall
Composer Bryn Harrison and pianist Joe Houston present a lecture recital on Bryn Harrison's 76-minute piano piece Vessels. The composer will discuss his compositional process as well as aspects of time and memory which are central to the music, whilst the performer will discuss his approach to learning the work. The lecture will include a performance of a shorter (20 minute) version of the piece and will be of interest to composers and performers alike.
Masterclasses: What's Involved?
The general format is: the student performs their piece and then the masterclass lead provides feedback and works on specific areas of the performance with the student - this might be in relation to technique, specific musical ideas, interpretation, performance skills etc.
Taking part
Masterclasses are a fantastic opportunity to receive coaching and feedback from a professional musician who hasn’t heard you perform before.
