Kelly Thoma | Music Group
Type of Seminar: Open - Music Group
Level of Participants: Intermediate-The participants should be at a reasonably good level on their respective instruments so as to be able to memorize and execute the proposed melodies, some of which are quite intricate and complex.
Sight Reading: not prerequisite for the seminar
In this seminar, Kelly will work together with the students on a selection of compositions of contemporary modal composers as well as on certain traditional pieces from a variety of backgrounds.
Without scores, but with a lot of repetition, the students will gradually commit the compositions to memory and subsequently, together with Kelly, orchestrate them through the means of dynamics, harmony (where appropriate), frequency compatibility, ornamentation, variations and whatever other ideas and methods will occur during the process.
The nature and progress of the seminar are very much dependent upon the composition of the group participating, which instruments they play for example, and as a result, the exact repertoire is not possible to be formulated beforehand.
However, approximately one month before the seminar, the prospective students will receive a number of proposed pieces for study which they can prepare if they wish.
The students should be at a reasonably good level on their respective instruments so as to be able to memorize and execute the proposed melodies, some of which are quite intricate and complex.
Whoever is possessed of patience, a love of group work, and an appetite for learning through repetition is most welcome.
