Kim Sherman - creative prompt (7/10/22)

At the end of composer Kim Sherman's presentation today (July 10), Kim posed a creative prompt for the Junior Composers Institute.. 

Tell a story inspired by an object. Ask a question. Does it have a shape? What is it's texture? What does it sound like? How does it move? Is it light or heavy? Is it corporeal or spiritual? What is its peronality? Does it sing? What is its story?

​

Write a 1-2 minute composition for one instrument; either your own or for someone else's.

We will perform your responses to this prompt on Tuesday, July 12 on Abbott Hall's stage in Kleinpell Fine Arts Center @ 4-5:30pm. The readings will be zoomed and uploaded on the Composers Online Institute's YouTube Channel.
