Music Meditations in Motion

conceived and designed general interest course: University of Toronto
(see also Composer; Director; Educator; Performer)

Open both to students and the public, this course, entitled Music Meditations in Motion, encouraged participants to explore a wide range of guided and intuitive physical movements in response to live improvised piano and percussion music by Amanta Scott.

The music took participants through a spectrum of moods: from quiet solitudes to earthy tribal rhythms and chanting; and through passionate outpourings to ethereal meditations. This course was extremely popular with working professionals, specifically psychotherapists and doctors.
