http://sarusfestival.weebly.com/2-auditions-for-courtney-owen-muir.html
Further information: AUDITION for (all together at the same time):
Musicians: We are looking for someone to plan an improvised- instrumental piece of music for Courtney's exploration. There are no specific requirements for this section. I am looking for someone who can play consistently for approximately 15 minutes. Preferred instruments: Piano and violin.
Artists (Painter): We are looking for someone who is open-minded. Must have an ear for detail. The idea for the artist, is to paint what he/she is hearing from the musician. Without communication, this said artist must be able to improvise a piece of artwork, based solely on the noises that he/she hears. Basic or complex shapes and lines are welcomed.
Dancers: must have a strong technical background with experience in improvisation techniques. Dancers must have a solid sense of detail, as they will be replicating the movement that they hear from a spoken word artist. Dancers must have the ability to transcend words into movement through a heavily connected process.
Please email Courtney at courtney.o.muir@gmail.com to rsvp for the audition.
