In this interactive show, students actively participate in a live concert via the Tinmendo app (available for iOS and Android). By involving them through their mobile phones, the students are engaged in the performance and gain new insights into music and its various building blocks. They are invited to create melodies, harmonies and rhythms in the app which are then performed by the band. The best results are combined into a spontaneous collective composition! Besides this, Tin Men and the Telephone also demonstrate how music can be found in the sounds of everyday life (the speech patterns of a teacher, birdsong, traffic noises…) opening the students’ ears to their surroundings.
A highly engaging performance for high school students, particularly those with an interest in the arts.
