Event Details
For the Love of Gongs is designed to inspire new and experienced players to expand their practice and skill set. We will begin by discussing the gong and gong culture throughout history. We will explore the physics of sound and what happens when we strike a gong. Techniques are taught that expand our perceptions on how we hold a mallet, and how we approach striking a gong. We will learn how our choice of mallet affects the quality of tone expressed. Most importantly, learners will study how to play the gong therapeutically and in an aesthetic way.
Learning the techniques will build confidence while encouraging play and exploration. This class will help to take our relationship with the gong to another dimension.
THIS IS A LIVE 3 DAY CLASS held at the Kootenay Sound Healing Centre near Riondel, BC. We have over 30 large gongs here for students to learn, play and explore with 🙂
