9 April, 15.30-17.00 | Studio 1 RCS
Chrisโs workshops are all about the endlessly fascinating link between music and dance, focussing on practical work in the studio involving body-percussion, voice, movement and an opportunity to explore both the direct and indirect connections between the two art forms. Always with a sense of play, Chris will offer a dynamic session, encouraging participants to explore and share their own sense of musicianship. Questions on his previous dayโs free class with Indepen-dance are welcome. Comfortable clothing is advised.
