Composition Workshop Day, March 15th 2016, CVMS London
Spaces are available for pupils and / or music teachers to sign up.
A workshop on instrumental writing led by Jonathan Willcocks with techniques of composition (accessing high marks in Bach Chorales and String Quartets), writing to composition briefs (including for the new syllabus for 2016 led by Steven Berryman).
This day will include a workshop on compositional techniques, in addition to a lecture on general composition. There will be a workshop performance of the three winning compositions that have been chosen by the adjudicator who will also give guidance and host a Q&A session for anyone who would like to bring along their compositions for advice. Structured in a similar way to an ‘INSET on composition’, the day will focus on our students, bringing them together and reminding them that they are not alone!
We do hope you will encourage your students to enter the competition, regardless of whether they and you can attend either the workshop or composition day. Please take from this what will be useful for your school. We do hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity provided by Amadeus to help inspire our next generation of composers further, through meeting, listening, talking, and sharing ideas. A successful first year will inevitably reap further rewards in the future.
