A 6-week journey into the depth and power of singing together, weaving together harmony-rich repertoire and collaborative vocal improv.
About this Event

Join a committed cohort of singers in Circle Choir, a 6-week journey into the depth and power of singing together.

Wednesdays 7-9 PM | April 8 - May 13

Circle Choir is rooted in the spirit of our monthly Singing Circles – freeing the voice, heart-opening songs, and shared reflection. But with the gift of time and continuity, we’ll revisit and deepen into the songs we sing, learn multiple harmonies until they feel satisfying and embodied, and develop a shared musical language as we stretch into the unknown of co-creation.

Each session will include learning layered, harmony-rich songs that may evolve through practices of vocal improv—groove-building, soloing, circle singing, humbowls. Throughout our time, participants will be encouraged to uncover and enter their own musical growth zone, some examples:

  • Growing comfort in and love for ones' own voice
  • Learning melodies by ear
  • Step into the circle and shape the music through gesture and embodied conducting
  • Holding a harmony and or leading a section
  • Trusting the muse as your improvise your own harmony or solo

Anyone (ages 16+) who is ready for this 6-week harmonious journey is welcome. Whether there’s dust on your vocal cords or you’re a retired jazz singer, this series offers a sanctuary to sing deeply, bravely—together.
