Moments of our lives – Holdsworth Thursday Group, Sydney, Australia
Human Sound Project for Holdsworth Community – ‘Living in the Moment’ Song-making Workshop: Bringing members of the Holdsworth community together to co-create.
Since music is inextricably linked to memories, it offers a powerful means of engaging people living with memory loss. It acts like a bridge that brings about a profound sense of presence by connecting us deeply to our past. The aim of this program was to provide a series of workshops that engage, uplift and inspire through participatory storytelling, lyric writing, music making and singing. The final result, a recorded song and music video, touches viewers and participants alike, reminding them of the rich inner life of the song’s creators, what they can accomplish and of their important stories.
