Event Details
Ten Days, in conjunction with Tasmanian Regional Arts, are on a quest to find the ruined pianos of Tasmania. Once identified, Ross Bolleter will explore them in a series of regional performances aptly titled Ruined. The ruined pianos of Tasmania will be installed in the Bond Store at the Tasmanian Museum & Art Gallery. Ross will demonstrate his radical brand of instant composing on the pianos and will run a series of workshops on playing pianos as found objects. In a unique take on the social history of music in Tasmania, the installation will also feature stories of the pianos' former lives.
The first workshops will be held in February in Stanley, Derby and Ross.
