Terry Jenoure, Grand Canyon Artist in Residence Public Programs

Canyon Soundscapes Workshop

Friday, September 8th from 11:30 – 12:30 p.m. Shrine of the Ages

This workshop is for artists of all genres and skill level. We will explore the use of my graphic notation system to play freely with sound. While in residence, I am keeping a journal of colors, textures, shapes, and overall relationships of natural formations. Because improvisation is at the crux of my work, we will explore some of the formations I have sketched to create a spontaneous work for mixed- media ensemble.

Seeing Sound, Hearing Hues – Performances

Friday, September 15 from 3:00-3:30 p.m. outside of Verkamps Saturday, September 16 from 5:00-5:30 p.m. Bright Angel Trailhead

Music Improvisation is the act of organizing sound spontaneously, or in the moment. It often uses prompts of various types to guide it. My solo will be inspired by visual art created and exhibited on site.

Terry began studying classical violin at age 8 and attended the acclaimed High School of Music and Art in New York City. After college, she became a protégé of the Free Jazz movement, touring, performing, and recording with some of the most exemplary musicians of the genre. With a career spanning four decades, Terry performs as composer, electric violinist and vocalist trained in jazz and musical improvisation
