The wonderful musicians Lorena Cantó Woltèche and Yvain Calvo, also known as Duo Fabulae, performed for participants in the hall below the studio on Sunday afternoon. Participants were free to draw whatever they desired while listening to their programme of English music. At the very end, a short film was shown alongside their performance. Listening to their music and drawing simultaneously was a fantastic experience, and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the variety of drawings that were created.
In the studio we have explored how music and drawing interact with a course we ran led by viola player and graphic designer @lcwiola Lorena Cantó Woltèche. She teams up with pianist @yvaincalvo as Duo Fabulae. We will be drawing in the hall below our studio on Sunday afternoon as they play a programme of English music ranging from Dowland to Britten.
There will also be a short screening of a film by @rrrojasssmade to accompany this musical programme. The music is inspired by English landscape as musicians (as well as artists eg. Ivon Hitchens, Paul Nash) looked to the natural world as a symbol of hope and restoration in a time of great destruction.
We are delighted that Duo Fabulae will perform for us, providing a chance to draw and respond to the rhythm, shape and mood of the music.
