Music Box Migrations

admin — Wed, 12 Sep 2012 20:44:58 +0000

Scottish Music Centre at City Halls / Saturday 20 October / Workshop 10.00 – 13.00 / All Ages

Free & Fun! Drop-in at any time.

Designed to accompany Piano Migrations, Music Box Migrations explores the idea of using a picture as a musical score. Images of birds, bird migration patterns and maps are printed directly onto strips of card. Holes are punched according to chosen points on the images or map. These holes trigger notes when the score is wound through a music box – creating a (usually pleasing) melody.

Supported by Scottish Music Centre.
