Free online workshop open to composers of all levels.
Welcome to the world of open-scoring for community-music makers. Join Emory Southwick (Music Sales and Catalogue Manager for Contemporary Music for All - CoMA), as they share tips, ideas and examples gathered across CoMA's 32 years of commissioning, on how to write engaging, collaborative and high quality music for amateur and community musicians.
6-7pm including approx. 40 min talk with a Q&A session at the end. Please note that although we try to wrap-up opensound sessions by 7pm, they often run over by 5-10 mins.
