L i t t l e W i n g P r e s e n t s Conduction Workshop with Dino J.A. Deane *Saturday & Sunday, Aug. 14 & 15, 2010* *12-4pm $30 @ Little Wing Music Space* “*Conduction*” is a vocabulary of signs and gestures transmitted by a conductor to an orchestra providing instantaneous possibilities for altering or initiating harmony, melody, rhythm, articulation, phrasing or form. Attributed largely to the work of Butch Morris, Morris himself cites an early substitution for musical notation called “chironomy,” dating from 1500 BC. Dino has been working with Butch since 1985. *In this two-day workshop* *participants will get a chance to experience a radically new way of approaching music making and composition * *fostering entirely new ideas about the creation and execution of music * *this work is often described as intensely challenging and intensely fun at the same time * *come with your instrument, an open mind and a desire to create music in the moment * *This will be an acoustic ensemble; if your instrument requires amplification, * *a low-watt (5-15 watt tube/60 watt solid state) amplifier is recommended * *Attendance over both days mandatory - Open to ANY instrument - * *Limited to 20 participants with a maximum of two drummers * *To pre-register or inquire further please call 505-699-5470 or email: info@candymanlittlewing.com* Dino J.A.
