Ian Phillips will guide us through a deep dive into some of the work of Margaret McGowen, exploring two engaging sessions:

🎵 Session 1 – “Time”
A beautifully structured unit encompassing the full Orff process. Experience how rhythm, movement, and creativity can come together in this rich exploration of musical time.

📄 Session 2 – “Paper as Sound”
Discover how simple materials can inspire creativity. This session explores using paper as a source of inspiration and sound — perfect for when resources are limited but imagination runs high.

Take this opportunity to reconnect with colleagues, spark new ideas, and enjoy joyful music-making within the QOSA community.
