Kids University - Everything is music

Kids University – Christmas 2012. «Everything is music: From the universe to water». 27 & 28 December 2012 at ARTos Foundation.

Kids University returns with another innovative 2-day programme. Unique knowledge and experience that leads to confidence and creative thinking of children aged 7-12. This year there will also be a small group of children aged 12- 14. Getting to know sound, analysis from scientists, strange musical and electronic instruments, visual scores, recordings, loop editing and solo performances of musical compositions. Music education is not a prerequisite.

“When the mind is made to work within a given framework, to commit to certain rules, it is very difficult to take a creative leap, to carry out combinations that open new horizons. We probably need to cultivate in children the elements that make us human. And these are not so much memory as originality and inventiveness, not so much speed as fantasy, not so much predetermined as unexpected, not so much square logic as creative absurdity. After all, what characterizes creative geniuses is not knowledge, nor memory, nor specialization. It is, among others, play and the ability to connect elements from different cognitive areas.” - Eugene Trivizas
