Unlocking the Voice Workshop with Philip Hamilton
Philip Hamilton's "Unlocking the Voice" workshops celebrate the power and uniqueness of the voice. Through various breathing techniques, vocal exercises, songs from around the Globe, rhythmic games and improvisation, Hamilton leads the group through a vocal experience that is comfortable, creative, fun and energetic. This workshop is designed for both veteran vocalists and "shower singers" and it provides a safe environment to explore music through vocalizing, movement and sound. Elements of doo wop, blues, world and popular music will be used, as well as music from ancient and contemporary vocal styles.
