Join artist Lou Sheppard for a hands-on workshop on the development of graphic scores, where imagery is used in place of other forms of musical notation. Participants will be invited to learn about the artist’s approach to this form of score, particularly in relation to his commissioned work, Dawn Chorus, Evensong (Bow River Valley) presented by Walter Phillips Gallery in the Shaw Amphitheatre from August 9 – September 2, 2024. The workshop will then shift to time for participants to draw or make their own graphic scores using provided materials. No formal musical or artistic experience is required.
