Students will have the opportunity to interactively learn about these ideas through watching and discussing original footage of Oliveros, performing her compositions using traditional and non-traditional instruments, as well as the opportunity to compose music themselves. Students must possess curiosity and a love of music, but need not be well versed in an instrument to participate.
The workshop will culminate with a final concert on Sunday, September 7th, featuring works by Pauline Oliveros as well as student compositions. In order to participate in this concert, students must attend all three workshops. However, this event is free and open to the public to attend.
