Color and Sound - Harmony Intensive - Improvisation Class
With free improvisation we will explore harmony by drawing parallels between how different notes, like colors, relate to each other. Sometimes the effects are pleasing or soothing, and sometimes they are stunning or jarring.
In sound we will explore the following color concepts:
-
Complementary colors, colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel such as red and green, blue and orange, or yellow and purple.
-
Analogous colors: those that lie next to each other on the color wheel, such as yellow, green and blue, creating a more harmonious effect.
-
Triadic colors, yellow, blue and red. They balance each other, and when combined create many hues in between.
-
Monochromatic colors, using different shades and tints of one color an entirely different effect is created.
-
Grayscale - how would we imagine all the shades of gray in sound.


EuSing! In Rhythm and Movement - Live Workshops in Montreal
Live Your Music at the Center of Musicians of the World
Discover the pure joy that vocal improvisation, rhythm and spontaneous movement can bring. Enrich your day with open curiosity and creativity.
Following the philosophy of the Bill of Musical Rights (David Darling) I aim to create a space where singers of all levels and backgrounds can come together and create songs from the heart. All levels of singing experience are welcome! Hand percussion instruments are provided.
In this facilitated group class we improvise using techniques developed by Music for People. No two sessions are the same because the music that emerges is from the collective of all those present. We play at the edge of delightful chaos, but gradually trepidation transforms into inspired collaboration.
We are all full of music!
