C/L Workshop

Tim, David F, Steve, Christine and I had our first meeting last week to begin developing the programme for the workshop over the course of the year. It was great to do group-think about what different types of theatre songs can do (much discussion about what is a charm song and what it's function is), how they fit together to build a score, how different song structures can accomplish different things. It's going to be a productive year. The last project of the year will be collaborations between the members of the composer/ lyricist and librettist workshops to write 10 minute musicals, and there'll be another collaborative project before that.
