SONG WEAVING
Singing, Sounding and Vocal Improvisation on October 25
SONG WEAVING is an invitation to singing, weaving of sounds, songs, and vocal compositions. Through dedication and engagement into vocal practices, you will seek to create a magic carpet of song and sound and release it to fly.
Guided by Agnieszka Kazimierska, the participants will explore their sonic inner landscapes and harmonic resonances. You will sonically thread and weave, You will launch and trace the threads, and invite them to dance and intertwine.
The encounters are organized with the intention of introducing enriching practices that spark creativity and nourish your capacity to feel. Working with your senses, with imagination and playfulness, and with sound as a main channel of communication and interaction, you will seek to create an ephemeral moment of shared beauty.
Agnieszka will propose simple tools to engage in vocal improvisation that do not require any prior musical education.
During the encounters you will explore:
–Centering yourself through the use of sound
–Using sound as a way to connecting to yourself and to another
–Relation between the sound and perception
–The importance of intention when emitting sound
–Connection between the sound and movement
–How sound can enhance your playfulness and imagination
Part of the sonic material will be proposed by Agnieszka, part will be developed during guided vocal improvisations, and another part will come from the songs brought by the participants.
This is a space for everyone interested in human vocality: professional singers, nonprofessional singers, and non-singers who want to vibrate and resonate with others.
