Singing outside the box<br />

In order to blossom, our voice needs us to feel completely free,<br />

and completely alive. But many times, our preconceived idea<br />

of what a “beautiful voice” should sound like prevents us from<br />

singing with freedom, and stops the flow of energy in our system.<br />

In this workshop we will happily forget, for a time, our usual goals<br />

of pitch, beauty, harmony, style...<br />

Through warm-ups and games, we will experiment other ways of<br />

singing, allowing all sounds to come, even (especially) those who<br />

are “outside the box”.<br />

We will end the workshop by learning and singing together a<br />

song, in order to experiment our new vocal sensations.<br />

Perhaps, if we‘re lucky, we will observe that through freedom and<br />

spontaneity, pure beauty may arise.<br />
