The Voice as an Instrument: Rhythm, Pattern and Musicality in Storytelling
Through playful improvisation and demonstration, workshop participants will explore the natural rhythms of language, simple song making, and the creative potential of the voice as an instrument for speaking and singing. We will examine story composition, narrator/character relationships, and inventive ways to liberate spontaneous, descriptive speech and melody. This improvisation workshop does not require any prior musical training.
