Ensemble Improvisation and Music Collaboration

Sundays 3-6pm: ONLY Apr 18, 25 (NO CLASS Apr 4 & 11)

Instructors: Jones Welsh & Will Salmon

Facilitated by Jones Welsh and Will Salmon, this workshop will focus on the dialogue created between a musician and dancer.  With engaged listening, the participants will explore a lively moment-to-moment interaction between dance and music that is fluid, surprising, and satisfying.  Performance techniques of Contact Improvisation and ensemble awareness will be employed, as well as theatrical elements of story, movement quality, and device will form a group consciousness.  Participants will work quickly to establish rapport with a professional group of musicians and dancers, then work to score a detailed performance structure that will be presented for the last class.  $20 drop in, or $70 for the series. Classes at Church In Ocean Park, 235 Hill Street, Santa Monica, 90405  (off Ocean Park Blvd. & Main Street).  For more info: call Making Faces Productions 818-618-4772
