Therapeutic Music Workshop with Kim Kirkman
Kim Kirkman specialises in harp therapy work using the harp and voice to bring about change in people’s lives.
This workshop can be attended online, and the recording will be available for one month.
Kim presents a hands-on workshop in therapeutic harp music. You’ll learn about some of the modes (scale patterns) used in healing. Kim will show you how you can creatively combine modes and rhythms to use them for music therapy. These tools and skills go beyond the boundaries of therapy, and are useful for any musician interested in modes, early music, Celtic music or improvisation.
Certificates of Attendance are available on request.
