Music in Film: Gamelan Workshops

Music in Film focused participatory music workshops, led by composer Helen Woods and musician Rhian Workman.

These workshops, aimed at local schools and community groups, will widen audiences’ appreciation of silent film whilst introducing them to the sound world of the Gamelan.
