‘Create Music Together’
Open workshop with Remy Alexander
10 October · 10:00 uur · Veur Theater
What if you could make music without knowing how to play an instrument?
Join composer Remy Alexander and discover how a piece of music can grow from absolutely nothing. Play with sounds and rhythms, try out ideas, make choices together and hear how, step by step, something completely new begins to take shape.
No instrument? No musical experience? No problem! The workshop is open to all ages. You don’t need to play the guitar, read music or know anything about composing. Curiosity is enough – experiment, listen and, above all, enjoy making music together.
At the end of the workshop, you’ll hear what you have created together come to life. The new piece will be performed straight afterwards at 11:00 with the Leidschendam-Voorburg Guitar Ensemble – and anyone who would like to can join in and become part of the performance.
Prefer to listen? Audience members are very welcome too. Come from 10:00 to watch and listen as the piece takes shape step by step, or join us at 11:00 for the performance of the new work.
Start with a sound. Add an idea. Create something together – and hear the result. Join in! Participation is free. Places are limited, so we recommend registering via the form below. The workshop is fully booked. Register below to join the waiting list.
