In this edition of our monthly workshop on second Sundays, Moving Star ensemble members Onome and Jascha will be leading a collective sonic journey based on a variety of collective vocal practices, including the spontaneously composed choral form known as circle-singing, to help us find and celebrate the music between us.
Expect games and songs that engage the whole group of singers in Moving Star's trademark exploratory style. You will also learn some practical tools for vocal improvisation, such as how to build and join parts, solo, and even lead the group, all while trusting the flow.
5. LUSH TONGUE VLOG
I've taken a break from vlogging and I will update you all once I have new videos to share. Let me know what topics you would like to see! And you can check out my vlogs by clicking the button below.
