"We have a duty towards music, namely, to invent it." — Igor Stravinsky
Where does music come from (if we're not reading a score or singing a song we already know)? Take a deep dive into improvisational singing, and experience the thrill of creating spontaneous music. We'll explore different ways to create vocal music individually and as a group, based mainly on the Vocal River exercises created by Rhiannon.
We'll work on inventing melody as well as adding harmony and syncopated parts. It will involve musical creativity, deep listening, collaboration, blending voices, stretching our comfort zones, and supporting one another.
The main requirement is that you can match pitch at least relatively well, and that you are fairly comfortable sharing your voice in a group (since there will be times when your voice will be heard alone). If this is pushing your comfort zone, but you want to work on it, that's great too. Feel free to contact me if you're not sure this is a fit for you.
