Circle Singing at Swallow Hill

About this event

What is Circle Singing? Circle Singing is a community singing and sounding practice, spontaneous and evolving — like a drum circle for voices. **NOTE: *This event is promoted in several places. The RSPV's here do not reflect the actual attendance.*** Based on practices developed by Bobby McFerrin and his collaborators, Circle Singing is a supportive, judgment-free space to play with your voice. Leaders create songs in the moment — patterns, percussive sounds, rhythms, harmonies, melodies, recognizable words, or invented language — and teach the parts orally to the rest of the group. The parts layer together into completely original compositions, each song a unique creation, never sung before, never to be sung again. It's a very organic, playful, community singing experience. All voices are welcome! Free... donations accepted to support Swallow Hill Music
