Workshops are held at venues around the East Midlands every few months, and are a chance to try out the Invisible approach to singing. Then, if you decide that this is the choir for you, you'll be able to talk to the Director about available places. The choir is always preparing for big challenges of one sort or another, and has a waiting list, but if you'd like to be a part of a big adventure, this could be the choir for you.
Watch this space for confirmation of dates!...
"There is no theory. You have only to listen. Pleasure is the law. I love music passionately. And because l love it, I try to free it from barren traditions that stifle it. It is a free art gushing forth, an open-air art boundless as the elements, the wind, the sky, the sea. It must never be shut in and become an academic art"
Claude Debussy

The 'Finding Your Gospel Voice' Course
Generally run once in each term, this course of 6 singing sessions is designed to help you discover and develop the powerful performing techniques of the soul/gospel/blues voice. In these sessions the group will take time to work through the basics of great singing, using practical exercises which focus on breathing, posture, resonance, jazz-blues rhythm and performing presence, applying your new-found skills directly into glorious group singing for growing confidence and deep joy!
The soul-gospel songs you will learn are all acapella, in 3 & 4 part harmony and taught 'by ear' in the traditional way.
This short course is ideal for singers who want to spend some special time building and exploring technique, or to ask questions about aspects of your own voice.
The sessions will take place on Thursday evenings, 7:30-9:30pm, at venues based around Grantham, Lincs. Course fee £60 (some concs available).
Choir Invisible is 100% committed to a multi-cultural membership.
