Leading the following workshop in EUROPA CANTAT Pécs:
Let's have a moment to share our experiences about Children's choirs in movement!
With some different kinds of repertoire, how can the scores inspired us to create a staging? How can the movement serve the music, help the children to sing and give something more to the audience?
Moderator: Maud Hamon-Loisance
Speaker: Thorsten Weber (AT)
To sing well it is essential to use our body . How can we work with children full of energy to help them using their body to serve their voice? How can we focus the energy of children? On the other side, how can help the teenagers when they are less comfortable with their body?
