Hanoi Collective Orchestra workshop, held for the second time in Hanoi, is one of the art projects in which participants perform “musical instruments” as a member of an Orchestra. Participants create “musical instruments” using tools, materials that we use in our everyday life.

Participants will create new instruments and perform as part of a large, impromptu orchestra. With this impromptu orchestra and the multitude of different ensembles created by the participants and varied sounds drawn from Hanoi’s streets, a new kind of “music without musicians” will be born in Hanoi.

To produce the second concert, 2 weeks workshop will be held with Otomo Yoshihide – a musician, Suzuki Akio – a sound artist, and facilitators of Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese nationalities. Participants for workshop will search for sounds from the street, from life in Hanoi, and create musical instruments.

“Workshop members” are the individuals who will create the ensembles and orchestra by joining the guest artists, guest advisors and facilitators in searching for sounds and instrumental materials for the “Hanoi Collective Orchestra,” as well as participating in experimental ensembles. They will also create instruments for the ordinary participants to play prior to the main performance.

●Schedule: 2 July (Sat.) – 17 July (Sun.)

●Number of the Participants: 30 people

●Activities:
1) Group work to create musical instruments from usual, common materials from our everyday life and play them.
2) Create musical instruments for audience of the orchestra’s performance on the 17th, and help them to create musical instruments by themselves.
