Resident Project: “Musical Bingo”

The Windwood Music Festival presents a series of creative music performance projects by international artists gathering in Airdrie for a two-week residency. In this residency, musicians explore what it takes to create projects that celebrate sustainability, community, and arts in all its forms; whether that be in exploring local landscapes and drawing inspiration from Airdrie’s natural beauty, or working with produce grown by local farmers to create a meal that inspires a performance. These projects will be presented in public spaces around Airdrie including but not limited to parks, cafes, museums, and farms, and are designed by the participants in order to best present a collaboration between community members or aspects of a community and music.By involving the community in the process and culmination of innovative music presentations across diverse spaces and demographics that would not regularly see live music, we are giving people a chance to see the threads that connect a space and in turn build a community. We aim to showcase the beauty of connection—between land, between people, between all things—in an increasingly divisive and disjointed world. This festival is a space where artists have the opportunity to live that connection, to see the process unfold and understand what it takes to bring projects to life that can have an impact on the well-being of a community as a whole.

Windwood Music Festival 2023

<p>A﻿ note from cellist, Titus Young: "I plan to present a solo cello concert where I can perform some of my favorite pieces for solo cello. Alongside the music, I want to have the audience participate in a game of musical bingo. I would provide bingo cards with various musical items. At the beginning of the program I could give a brief explanation of the more technical terms and then begin to play. As I play, they would mark on their bingo cards things they hear, for example pizzicato, bariolage, or a repeat. This way the audience could remain not only engaged with the music, but also attentive to details they might not normally notice."</p>
