A heart that beats. A strong voice. Since we were born, we have the rythm and the vibration inside, even if somehow we forgot it. Music? Simply an organization of those vibrations so it can be shared, put in common, on paths that sometimes aren't built beforehand.
Through body's exploration and collective games, ManudO proposes a journey toward Circle Songs, paths woven by voices and rythm, with some room for improvisation. He will be joined by the ukrainian drummer and percusionnist Igor Hnydyn.
Content: body and voice warm up, improvisation approaches, choir work, polyrythms
