We've going in two weeks to the beautiful Cox Bay resort on the edge of Long Beach on the far west coast of Vancouver Island. Just a little too early to know the weather, but it could be anything from snow to rain to spring sunshine. I"ll be hoping for the latter!

The class will focus on creating music for "meditation" - not music for performance, or finger dexterity or ensemble. Accent on creating, not reading. A music stand will be helpful, but we won't use it much. There will be assignments where you work in your rooms, and group sessions where I'll introduce new ideas and everyone will share the results of their experiments. A relaxed pace, as befits the title of meditation.

Workshop begins at 10 am Tuesday 11th and finishes with a harp party Thursday night the 13th. Walk on the beach, play music, walk on the beach, play music, repeat. and repeat.

It will be helpful to record some of your experiments, so a good sound recorder, cell phone or otherwise will help a lot. You'll need a notebook to write in, maybe some staff paper. A bench if you like a special seat, and your harp and tuner!  That should do. If you haven't reserved your room, call Cox Bay resort and do it soon - phone them and ask for the special harp rate.
