Composition and Improvisation for all ages


Workshops for all ages and abilities concentrating on improvisation as a starting point for writing music in all styles

Musicate employs a team of vastly experienced composers that work in a variety of genres from arranging the string parts to some of the UKs best pop bands through to contemporary classical music. 

These workshops are suited to people of all ages and abilities although some instrumental proficiency is required to gain the maxmimum benefits of the workshop.  The workshops begin with improvisation games and activities that aim to free musicians from the printed score and develop listening and appreciation skills in a supportive environment.  The musical content is then developed until collectively the ensemble has written a piece. 

The workshops can be done over any length of time from a full day through to 6 or 10 week project.

The workshops are especially suited to GCSE, AS and A2 level students as an introduction to composing and a guide to creating their composition portfolios.
