Explore sound and instrumental technique with leading professional musicians Jack McNeill and Ulrich Heinen, discovering the collection through improvisation.

Working with a visual artist, create your own music through drawing, creating graphic interpretations of paintings that will, in turn, be used by the musicians to create a unique and original 'sound tour'.

The workshop offers the chance to explore familiar Barber paintings in a new way and create a truly original experience. No musical or artistic knowledge is required. Open to adults only.

The workshop will be led by composer and educator Jeremy Clay.
