Wanted!!
Musicians and music lovers of any age, any instrument, any ability to be part of the beautiful, monster, music machine, phenomena that is The Totally Made Up Orchestra
A recurring highlight of previous NMD festivals The Totally Made Up Orchestra is an orchestra like no other that blends composition, improvisation, words, sounds, movements, noises, gestures, humour and much head scratching into a unique and captivating performance.
Guided by the musical lunacy of composer Brian Irvine you will devise, create and perform a completely new work from scratch over the course of just a few hours.
Doesn’t matter if you have been playing for years or minutes – dust off that boxed away trumpet!
Doesn’t matter if you are 9 or 90 - wheel out that double bass and tune up that Telecaster!
If you can read music – great!
If you don’t read music - even better!
All you need to be part of this amazing ensemble is a desire to be heard, a desire to play with other people, an open mind and a big creative heart.
Super fun and wild adventurous music guaranteed!
Come and be a part of it at 10am (see below how to register), or come and hear the finished results at 1pm.
