Overview
This module will introduce students to creative processes, using improvisational and compositional exercises. Students will investigate the use of movement, instrumental and vocal concepts as motives for creative practice.
Students taking this module will engage a number of different improvisatory and compositional practices from western and `world music and dance traditions as well as their own genres. They will understand these practices in context but also engage them in the context of their own performance practices. Students will develop performances that will be produced from an engagement and development of these practices in a meaningful and creative manner. Students will be provided with written feedback according to BA Irish Music and Dance policy
