Workshop description:

From body to breath, from breath to voice, from voice to singing, through space and silence, through imagination, emotion and listening.

Morning: Deep physical and breathing preparation, work on the basic elements of the ‘Human voice’ – workshops to discover the freedom, range and expressive potential of your own voice, individually and collectively.

Afternoon: We will learn and explore polyphonic songs from around the world and body-based rhythms. Then let’s improvise together, using the songs as a source of inspiration as well as allowing spontaneous vocal creations to emerge.

This workshop will enable you to freely develop the potential of your singing voice and to widen and enrich it in contact with other voices. The ability to read music is not a prerequisite. Open to all!

I love discovering the beauty of an individual voice: beauty in the sense of singing from a place within us where we are confident, conscious and authentic; dancing with the voice deeply rooted in the body; giving voice to whatever is inside or around us and transforming it into music; singing and living everything which envelopes our soul-voice – feelings, memories, thoughts, emotional or muscular tensions, dreams…. This lively creativity necessitates a high quality of listening, both to myself and to others – to feel connected. For me it’s a marriage between art and spirituality, embracing everything. It’s my life.

The ability to listen to my inner world and the world around me. The ability, starting from this quality of listening, to be deeply in touch with my inner world and the world around me. To discover and to cultivate a space where everything life brings can be transformed, where each experience can become a ‘bridge’ towards a new creation. All of this, to me, is ‘singing’.
