Timeless Voices: A journey into improvised A Capella Workshop
Timeless Voices is a workshop in which I guide the participants through a course of perception altering exercises and sonic adventures into vocal improvisation. There is no right, there is no wrong. Take a breath, make a sound, do it again . . . that's all you need to remember.
After a warm-up for your body and your voice we will experience Long Tones, where each breath is a note created by you. When your creation joins together with the group's creations the result can be breath-taking. Learn what your body and your mind already know about invented language.
As time allows we will explore interlocking patterns and rhythms and create rich "bed grooves" over which we can take turns in full bloom, singing improvised solos.
"Vocal improv is about connecting with others and the earth. When we sing together those vibrations resonate in all of us but also in the spaces between us and the space around us. We form a single chorus and the healing magic of song radiates out from us in all directions."
Workshop Format
The Timeless Voices workshop is very flexible and can be delivered in a hall, on a boat, on the grass or while in a coat. It can also be successfully delivered to groups ranging from 2 to 100, the more the merrier.
Workshop length varies based upon need.
