EMBODIED VOICE Through the voice we will look into the question of intention and what it is that makes a song or a body vibrant and alive.
As performers we continuously search for a more subtle, attentive and powerful presence. The workshop aims to awaken this listening presence and enhance the relationship between voice and body. Through finding a deeper connection with rhythm, voice, physicality, breath and songs we aspire to let our creativity flourish and guide both our performative imagination and our everyday lives.
Participants will be led in playful vocal exercises, brought to life in choral singing of folk songs from different corners of the world.The songs will in addition provide a space for us to improvise and explore our individual voice.
