NDVE | Improv Vocal Experience

A weekly vocal improv session for singers of all levels.

Love using your voice? Curious what it can do when you stop overthinking it?
This is an in-person vocal group for people who want to sing together. No previous training, no auditions, no pressure.

We explore vocal improvisation, harmony and confidence through playful group exercises and spontaneous music-making.

Sessions are relaxed, supportive and genuinely fun. You’ll build listening skills, experiment with sound and discover what your voice can do in a room full of others doing the same. If you can make noise and you’re willing to try, you’re in.

Session Structure

Each 90-minute session has two parts:

Improvisation
Creative group and individual work including improvised singing, rhythmic speaking, rapping, spoken word and exploratory vocal techniques.

Repertoire Development
Work on one or two set pieces that will develop across the programme. Participants will have the option to share the finished pieces in a relaxed end-of-programme music sharing on Wednesday, March 25th.

Nathan is a vocal leader, composer and arranger who curates projects for organisations including Southbank Centre, ND Vocal Ensemble, Multi-Story Orchestra and Britten Pears Arts. He works with singers of all levels to build confidence, develop vocal skills and experience the joy of group singing.

Sessions take place weekly at AAJA Music Studios (basement event space) on Comet Place. It’s within easy reach of New Cross, Deptford and Greenwich stations.
