Alpin Hong Educational / TITLE: “Movies to Games, Classically Trained” DESCRIPTION: This workshop investigates how popular movie, television, and video game music affect the listener, by demonstrating how classical composers used rhythm, harmony and melody to emotionally influence their audiences. It introduces elements such as intervals, keys (major vs. minor, Western vs. Eastern), and timing (tempo, rubato) to show that the modern music of today has its roots in classical compositional traditions. The piano is a natural tool for this workshop due to its familiarity, polyphony, and ability to cover almost every genre of music, from the simplest electronic music to orchestral literature.

The format can vary widely and be individually tailored to the students’ and teachers’ needs. A residency would bring exposure for students or ensembles in the community outside of the school. For a large ensemble such as an orchestra, band, or choir, it could involve rehearsals and a concert presentation with the artist, such as a piano concerto or other musical work. Larger ensembles respond and benefit greatly from interaction and instruction from another artist other than their accustomed teacher. Smaller ensembles such as a string quartet would receive private instruction and collaboration in a variety of performance settings. Musical theatre students and instrumentalists could also benefit from private coaching as part of their preparation for performance. Specifically, piano students could take advantage of a master class, private instruction, and a collaborative performance at the end of the residency. CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE
