PITCHSTONE LISTENING CIRCLE | JULY 9 | 1.30-2.30PM

Introducing a new way to engage.
 

Following the classes on July 9, at 1.30pm, the Pitchstone Listening Circle offers a space to pause, reflect and share our thoughts.

 

Facilitated by Ed Anderton, this informal discussion explores whatever resonated during the masterclasses: from the substance of music-making, compositional language and the dynamics of collaboration, to personal memories, emotions, ideas and questions sparked by the experience.

 

Chamber music invites us not only to listen to masterful compositions, but to people; their lives and experiences.
 

So stay a little longer. Join us on July 9th from 1.30pm - 2.30pm for a relaxed discussion and an opportunity to continue listening together.
