All participants expressed their desire to continue these experiences of exchange and joint work.

 

 

The event coincided with rehearsals shared throughout the weekend between musicians from the Portuguese band Space Ensemble and members of the Goián Band and School of Music with the aim of learning about the process of making live music for films, working on improvisation and creativity.
