These courses are open to any public, amateurs and professionals curious to discover different ways to merge voice and body percussion. Two approaches to singing are proposed in co – animations with artists and choir conductors specialized in “singing – repertoire” and “improvised singing”.
BODY PERCU & VOICE – REPERTOIRE:
Each co – animation is an opportunity to discover a particular repertoire, from modern and traditional African, Brazilian, Greek to Soul, Jazz, Gospel or Pop songs and to explore the richness of rhythm in specific contexts of accompaniment of the voice. This coordination of the vocal gesture and the percussive gesture represents a certain challenge but the musical experience in choir is a real pleasure!

BODY PERCU & CIRCLESONG/ CHANT IMPRO:
These courses are an opportunity to explore the language of body percussion in the “multiple configurations that collective vocal improvisation offers, ranging from circlesong (where one person improvises and guides the rest of the group) to co-improvisation (where everyone is free to improvise), through a wide variety of games and exercises. It will be an opportunity to mix body and voice expression, find how these two expressions support each other through rhythm, develop differentiation skills between movement and voice, and above all, immerse yourself in a fully alive and embodied collective experience. ” (N.
