Creative Partnerships
Joseph's Yard – By Charles Keeping
I was commissioned by Suzette Rocca under the umbrella of Creative Partnerships to tell the above story by means of music. The 20 minute piece was then enacted and danced by two members of staff (one of them a violinist) together with choreographer/dancer Suzette Rocca. The children (of Keyes Meadow Primary School in North London) sat and watched until near the end, when they all joined with the performers. There were no words, and it was fascinating to find ways to tell the story using only music and natural sounds.
