„Open Music Workshop“ with Sebastian Gramss
In the Workshop ensemble we will work on developing some new pieces
- based on the ideas of the participants and some spontaneous conducting by Sebastian Gramss.
Even a simple idea - like a melody or a rhythmic pattern- can be transformed into rich and powerful music.
Within the workshop we deal with improvisation and composition of any form and style.
"No Limits“ is the key to an open approach to global music.
In an relaxed and respectful atmosphere we will use Jazz Elements,
Traditional Music from Sri Lanka, Rock, Groove and Free Improvisation .
WORKSHOP:
4th -6th September 2018
At Musicmatters & Goethe-Institut
On Invitation Only
