Description
Come and listen to WAAFA students celebrating The Scratch Orchestra.
Music Director: Lindsay Vickery
Performed by: Composition and Music Technology students and staff
In 1969, The Scratch Orchestra sprang into being in London. Led by Cornelius Cardew, this experimental music ensemble spent the next five years challenging the ideas of what it is to be a composer, a musician, an audience, an amateur or an expert. This grand experiment in collective music-making allowed anyone to join, used graphic scores, and emphasised free improvisation. Fifty years on, WAAPA's Composition and Music Technology students celebrate the zany, shape-shifting world of The Scratch Orchestra.
