Free workshop: Professor Andre Quadros 19 May 16 June 2016

MUSIC AND THE BRAIN

As many of you incorporate music into your storytelling, and as Storytelling Vic is exploring its relationship with the Newport Fiddle and Folk Club and Community Music Victoria,  this seemed too good not to share.

Professor de Quadros's work is rooted in social justice values: he is a conductor, music educator, writer and human rights activist whose practice is global. He has conducted and undertaken research in over 40 countries. 

This workshop is free. But please book so the organisers can plan. Read about Professor de Quadros HERE
