Speed, Agility, Ornaments, Trills & Coloratura
Saturday, October 5, 2pm-5pm Pacific/ 5-8pm Eastern
*For singers, instrumentalists, and performers of all disciplines
This workshop is designed to make you go really fast, really well.
By delving into rebound, subdivision, and the design of the human instrument, we can go from halting and sluggish to slippery and precise VERY quickly.
My work in classical coloratura, North Indian, jazz, Bulgarian, and other highly ornamented Balkan music, and other disciplines like dance, swimming, boxing, acrobatics, and neurobiology have made me super tuned-in to how speed and precision are actually emergent qualities of human performance when the proper conditions are created.
This workshop will take you from great to exquisite to transcendent. No joke.
