Workshop description:

« You gotta have a dream- if you don’t have a dream – how are you gonna have a dream come true?”
Exploration, Improvisation and Interpretation are essential components in voice work allowing us to explore our vocal abilities and to bring a personal meaning to a piece of music, a movement, a text ….the art of interpretation. We ask each participant to come with a « dream ». The work begins here!

A typical day:
– Source and Expansion:
Daily sessions begin with a progressive physical preparation based on different
techniques, which encourage a free and dynamic release of the breath, voice and body : articulation of the spinal column, pelvis, rib cage, etc., as well as a fluid and inventive relationship to the moving body in space.
– Individual Voice work in small groups: Individual voice work is both technical and expressive, adapting to each participant’s experience. The aim is for each participant to discover and enrich her/his/their meaningful sound, as well as creating a firm foundation from which to explore and create. Time is given to explore unknown timbres and textures, and their relationship, singing, text, and emotion. The liberated wildness of raw voice will be encouraged in improvisations, as well as the subtle flexibility and nuance of the melodic voice.
– Preparation of material and Interpretation: The first three afternoons will be dedicated to the preparation of the material brought by each participant. The last three afternoons will be discovering insights into the interpretation of the material. This is individual work with the important support of the group bearing witness.
– Group singing: The day will end with the whole group together in either harmonic singing or group improvisations.

Please email your letter of motivation, a short CV, and one song, composition, idea or text, learned by heart to Linda Wise: linda@pantheatre.com at the latest two weeks before the workshop begins.

When I was 19, I met a man who changed the direction of my life. Was it the man? Was it his philosophy? I can only say that this meeting formed the prima materia of my own work – and introduced me to the idea that Art is also a transformational life process.

Lives in Madrid, Spain.
I love sound, its vibration and the effect it has on our minds and souls. I feel in continuous movement, attentive and listening to what the voice and the body can tell us and reveal. I believe in the necessity of generating spaces of trust and security to open up, to listen, explore, tune in, express and share with others in order to unleash the vocal, musical and human potential of each person.

Listening. This is where I feel at home and where my personal research and work starts from. How do I hear myself/the others? How do I listen to myself/the others? I include the piano in my work, understanding this instrument as a second voice.
