How can we approach music itself without becoming overly preoccupied by the framework of performance practice within which it sits, creating a quasi-dilettante style firewall that prevents people from enjoying music as it really is? This workshop, conceived, created and executed by Michael Spencer, is an ambitious endeavor to gain different perspectives on music, especially so-called &#8216;classical music\u2019. \u00a0 Experience totally different ways of getting closer to music, and explore your own channels for connecting with the Arts\u00a0in general.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Profile:<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Michael SPENCER<br \/>\n<\/strong>Formerly a member of the London Symphony Orchestra, and Head of Education at Royal Opera House in London, Michael Spencer is currently a visiting professor at Ueno Gakuen University, Tokyo and Director of Communication for the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra.\u00a0 He both devises and presents a number of collaborative programs throughout Japan with organizations including Mori Art Museum, Muza Kawasaki, Mori Building and Shizuoka Grand Ship.
