Workshops in May and June
Dear Hlasohled friends, if you’re interested in what we’ve got lined up:
on Saturday 11 May there will be a workshop with Marta Topferová, a composer and singer, whose beautiful, colourful alt is unique in the Czech Republic. The workshop will focus on the musical genre that Marta handles unlike any other native artist - Latin American Singing and Songs. You can learn more about the workshop HERE and there is a demonstration below.
Then on Saturday 1 June there is a workshop Vocal improvisation and vocal looping with a great vocalist - En.dru. This young musician has already done a great deal - recent Boss World Lopping Championship, twice winner of Beatbox Czech Republic, winner of the European 1st Marathon Beatbox Battle, runner up in the world beatbox team category with his group the Beatburger band and I could go on.
The workshop will focus on working with the voice and vocal improvisation, discovering the possibilities of the human voice and mouth drumming (beatboxing). Participants will make use of these vocal elements in a collective musical improvisation. The workshop is open to all who are willing to give it a go and want to go all the way : - ). The workshop will be held at Vyšehrad and you can learn more about it (and samples can be heard) HERE.
