2022 Forage & Flourish Contemporary Music Festival
The Forage & Flourish Contemporary Music Festival is a new music event presented in partnership with the City of Alpharetta, with concerts featuring internationally acclaimed artists showcasing music written exclusively by living, powerful composers and a two-day student workshop.
Student Workshops / Saturday June 25th & Sunday June 26th
10:00-2:30pm EDT @ The Alpharetta Arts Center / Lunch Provided and T-Shirt Included
The Student Workshops will provide high school youth in our community with an opportunity to learn from and engage with top music faculty from institutions all over the country. Working with this line-up of top professionals, the students will benefit from hands-on experience in rehearsal while preparing several new works. They’ll also have the opportunity to discuss contemporary performance techniques, college preparation and more with our artist faculty.
Participating students will have the opportunity to perform alongside our faculty at our final concert on Sunday, June 26th (3:30-4:30pm). This workshop will focus on ‘indeterminate/graphic notation’ music. All instruments welcome!
