Composition workshop at Morley College led by Edward Henderson from Bastard Assignments

The Solid performed by Edward Henderson for Bastard Assignments

Composer Edward Henderson (one of the lively minds that make up Bastard Assignments) is now leading the composition workshop at Morley College. The new term starts on 18 September and the course is aimed at those age 19 and over. The course will "enable students to build completed pieces of music through a mixture of taught techniques and utilisation of students' own musical ideas. Students will be given frameworks in which to write pieces and there will be continuous tutor feedback and class discussion of the works as they build up. Performances of pieces will happen in class, or with Morley groups that composers write for."

The entry requirements are fluid, again from the website - "a solid theoretical background (ABRSM 6+ or equivalent) and fluent reading and writing of standard music notation are useful but not essential. Experience with music and sound software is useful but not essential. The ability to contribute to musical performances (even rudimentary ones) is strongly encouraged"
