Circlesinging | Summer 2022

Circlesinging – Concession

You heard it here first: The collaborative four-day course on Circlesinging with Britain's leading Circlesinging facilitator Guillermo Rozenthuler is back.

⭕ When: Mon 13th - Thurs 16th June, 18:30-21:00 BST

⭕ Where: BG01 at Brunei Gallery SOAS

⭕ Delivery: In-person

Being the earliest form of community singing, circlesinging is performed in countless different ways around the world. It can involve a lot of things: vocal improvisation, jamming, add-or-change-a-part, voicestra, a drum circle for singers, or simply make-it-up singing. 

In any case, circlesinging is beautiful and quite a mistake-free zone, so you don't need to worry about being a bad singer... It doesn’t matter how you sound – the rest of the group makes you sound awesome!

Course Description

 

Circle singing is a form of spontaneous music-making and collaborative singing. In this experiential workshop we will develop skills of ensemble singing - blend, balance, tuning, and sensitivity. 

Here are some of the superpowers you will gain after every circlesong:

   😇 strong musicianship

   😇 understanding of harmony & counterpoint

   😇 rhythmic precision

   😇 deep listening skills

A valuable tool for all singers and musicians, music and voice teachers and group facilitators. Aimed at anybody willing to experience group singing and sharing, who want to expand their musicianship and creativity, and discover melodic and rhythmic patterns from diverse musical traditions that can be applied to enhance their own musical language, through a process of sharing and vocal experimentation.
