| About Music for People |
Just Released! "The Darling Conversations" with David Darling and Julie Weber. The Darling Conversations explores the fundamental techniques of sound-making as an instrument of self-expression and personal growth. By approaching music from a philosophy of self-acceptance and joy, we can tap our inborn creative impulse and re-vitalize our music-making. If you are unable to join us for a weekend of music making, the Darling Conversations is the next best thing! Visit www.darlingconversations.com to listen or order this 3 CD set.
Music for People is dedicated to re-vitalizing your music-making and promoting music as a means of self-expression. We offer music improvisation workshops throughout the year, as well as a four-year program called the Musicianship and Leadership Program (MLP) of which there are 83 graduates (Certified Facilitators).
Founded by cellist David Darling and flautist Bonnie Insull in 1986, Music for People is a not for profit organization that seeks to promote a humanistic approach to the way music is taught, performed, and appreciated. Its philosophy is embodied in a musical Bill of Musical Rights that profoundly respects the creative impulse in everyone. Music for People also strives to act as a catalyst in gathering people together to play and sing by creating safe environments in which they can explore music improvisation.
Our improvisation workshops are open to everyone — no matter what your musical background and experience. See Calendar for workshop dates or visit www.musicforpeople.org.
A Bill of Musical Rights
Human beings need to express themselves daily in a way that invites physical and emotional release.
Musical self-expression is a joyful and healthy means of communication available to absolutely everyone.
There are as many different ways to make music as there are people.
The human voice is the most natural and powerful vehicle for musical self-expression. The differences in our voices add richness and depth to music.
Sincerely expressed emotion is at the root of meaningful musical expression.
Your music is more authentically expressed when your body is involved in your musical expression.
The European tradition of music is only one sound. All other cultures and traditions deserve equal attention.
Any combination of people and instruments can make music together.
There are no "unmusical" people, only those with no musical experience.
Music improvisation is a unique and positive way to build skills for life-expression.
In improvisation as in life, we must be responsible for the vibrations we send one another.
