This three-day workshop brings together musicians from diverse genres, instruments and artistic contexts to explore how movement can support playing, rehearsing, composing, creating and performing. Through practical sessions combining multiple approaches to movement and sound, participants will work individually and collectively to deepen sensory awareness, expand attention, and develop greater freedom of expression. The focus is on widening artistic practice — strengthening connection to instrument, body, collaborators, audience and the shared space in which music happens.
For this workshop, Resonanzlehre trainer Yanna Pelser joins forces with the movement coaches from Moving Strings & Play As We Are. These are interconnected artistic and educational initiatives that place body and movement at the center of music-making, rehearsal, and performance. Founded by Maya Felixbrot and developed together with Alex Welch and Alexandra Baybutt, they create experimental spaces for somatic sound practices and interdisciplinary artistic research.
