Re:Sound, an Opera about sounds

Over the past couple of months composers / sound artists / musicians Duncan Chapman and Isabel Jones have been working with pupils at Banchory School, Hill of Banchory School and Strachan School.

Inspired by their favourite sound in the world that isn't a musical instrument or piece of music, the pupils have been helping us create an opera about sounds. This has been a wonderful project which each of the pupils has made a real contribution to.

The schools will come together to showcase their work at Woodend Barn in Banchory on Thursday 27th June. Due to space restrictions tickets are unfortunately limited. If you would like to attend please contact anne@sound-scotland.co.uk who will be able to advise.
