Through a presentation, Howard Slater took us on a journey with the Scratch Orchestra through a brief history of their origins, as well as the continuation of their influence and inspiration to this day. The Scratch Orchestra originated from a series of music composition classes at London’s Morley College. These classes were initiated by Cornelius Cardew, Michael Parsons, and Howard Skempton and were attended by avant-garde musicians and artists interested in sound research, performance, and interventions outside concert halls. From this, the Scratch Orchestra was formed in 1969 and is described in the sketch of the statute as “a large number of enthusiasts who bring their experience and come together for action (making music, playing, performing). https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/events/nature-study-notes/
