about

The idea for Chinese Whispers was adapted from a writing game played by authors. The musical interpretation is to have a group of composers consecutively create a set number of bars each. The bars are to be completed and then passed on to the next composer, who will then pass on ONLY their composed bars to the next composer. This way each composer will only see the previous composer’s work – never the whole piece. Why? – to make it interesting. Once the collaborative piece is completed, each composer is given the opportunity to compose a new piece of music, inspired by the collaboration.
