Blankenese meets Brazil! 🌊 Música do Círculo with Will Zumba Vol. II

Blankenese meets Brazil! 🌊 Circle Singing and Improvised Singing Brazilian Style.

We are thrilled: The wonderful Will Zumba is visiting us again and will be leading this evening!

Will Zumba, a Hamburg-based musician and certified facilitator of the Brazilian methodology Música do Círculo, brings a special spirit to our circle. Together with Annalena Doss, he successfully leads workshops for body percussion and vocal improvisation under the name Intuisound.

His approach is unique: He uses Música do Círculo to let music emerge directly from the moment through circle singing and improvised singing, entirely without sheet music or pressure to perform. By using our bodies and voices as instruments and meeting in the connecting form of the circle, we create vibrant rhythms and choirs together. Music thus becomes a powerful tool for mindfulness, playful interaction, and human musical connection.

About the Evening:
Immerse yourself in 90 minutes full of vitality. We harness the energy of the group to get into a shared flow. We start with inspiring body percussion exercises, making rhythms tangible with our bodies, and intuitively develop harmonious chants from them. In the shared circle, we let our voices blend, experiment with tones, and jointly create a unique, spontaneous listening experience. A refreshing, intensive journey through dynamic group improvisations!

Spontaneous melodies, harmonies, and loops emerge in a circle in the here and now. Without any pres
