PERFORMANCES
January 19 at 2pm and 7pm

Departure Point is a composition/performance workshop for music students interested in exploring new and traditional ways of creating new work. Students will meet with Zeitgeist members for 4 hours each day at Zeitgeist's performance space, Studio Z. Our activities will focus on the composition and rehearsal of two large works created by students in collaboration with the members of Zeitgeist. We will create these new works in a unique way. Students will select two themes to serve as a framework for a large composition made up of smaller compositions ("Paintings by Picasso," "Dante's The Divine Comedy,", "Silent Movie Stars" etc). Students will be split evenly between the two themes, and each student will be responsible for creating one element of our large work. These works can be completely composed, or they can contain degrees of improvisation. They can require the entire group's performance participation, or they can be written for any subset of the group. In the end, we will have two works that contain the creative contribution of each student, created under a framework developed by everyone, and rehearsed and performed collaboratively by students and members of Zeitgeist.

Zeitgeist is a new music chamber group of two percussionists, woodwinds, and piano based in the Twin Cities. As the only full-time chamber ensemble in the Twin Cities wholly dedicated to the performance of new music, Zeitgeist is a unique cultural resource for audiences in our community. We present a concert series, maintain a performance space (Studio Z) and carry out a variety of audience enrichment programs for members of our community. You can learn more about Zeitgeist at www.zeitgeistnewmusic.org.
