…music meets the soul.


Singing with movement and body percussion – in the moment.

In the unique LAB sessions in Leading Voices, co-creation and experiment are the main focus. In this LAB, participants will work together with Santi Serratosa and Cara Tasher on singing with subtle physical intent and body percussion in different ways. SPARK will consist of several sessions over three days. Participants must join all sessions for the full learning experience.

Apart from the final presentation (Saturday 30 July, 17.00-18.00) you can visit this LAB as a passive participant. Entry is possible only with a lanyard, in the mornings between 11.00-12.00 hrs.

How a LAB differs from a regular workshop

A LAB differs from a regular workshop for choral conductors. A LAB is not about following a leader, but about creating content together: both session leaders and participants operate on an equal level to get the best result possible. Or fail together. Are you up to this?
