Rhythm Tribe Song Circle
Have you ever wanted to create something in the moment with your voice?
Have you ever wondered how singers like Bobby McFerrin or Al Jarreau do it?
Then, come and experience VoiceDance, a workshop created by Emile
Hassan Dyer, based on the teachings of his mentor Rhiannon, an amazing
vocalist, improvisor and founding member of Bobby McFerrin's Voicestra,
the world renowned "voice orchestra".
In this session, Emile will explore vocal improvisation using a few
games/exercises from Rhiannon's teaching improv method such as:
-
3 Face Front - You can't look at your partners for musical clues.
-
Band - where we each add our own short repetitive part until we are
supported by all manner of funky grooves, and we take turns being the
soloist.
-
Roundabout - We establish a pattern using a rhythm or melody, and each
person sings only one note or beat of the pattern, so that we need each
other to sing the full pattern.
-
Mystery Band - The Band creates a piece then the Soloist sings a prearranged song known only to themselves.
And more...
This workshop is for EVERYONE!!!
