Scratch Orchestra
Since November 2013, a group of women from Jessy Cohen and the area, are meeting every week with composer Amnon Wolman and cellist Dan Weinstein.
This workshop idea is that everybody who likes to play can do so, and not only that, but also take part in composing a musical piece that is meaningful to them. The emphasis has been on the performers’ experience during the process of composing and performing the piece, rather than on the final product.
Here are some photos from the orchestra's performance last week in the exhibition "A Piece for Two Floors and a Corridor", followed by a tour in the neighborhood, listening to a piece composed especially for the acoustic wall separating the neighborhood from the highway.
