here is an original song by me x x

Overall I enjoyed the event - Laura Bowler gave us a very engaging talk about physical performance, and gave us the opportunity to introduce ourselves to each other in interesting ways by singing or shouting our names to the rest of the group. She talked to the group about physical performance, including body movement and facial expressions when playing or singing. Laura composes modern music, focusing lots of her work on atonality. I enjoyed learning about her career as a composer, although I think the workshop would have been better if we had the chance to ask her some questions about her music. Overall, though, I liked learning about physical performance, and the exercises we did as a group helped us get to know each other better.
