Singing The Mouthful Way
By Mouthful Vocal Ensemble
Place of Origin: UK
About
Come and sing the Mouthful Way - craft words into music, make history into song, play with the resonance of voices and stone.
Led by Dave Camlin, Sharon Durant, Bex Mather and Katherine Zeserson - Mouthful’s four welcoming and expert vocal practitioners - this workshop explores themes of stone and sanctuary, of unwritten resonance and histories of belonging and home.
Bring your love of singing, your curiosity and an appetite for playful creativity, and together we’ll consider what we wish to sing into being - inspired by the grounds and building and stories of St Mary’s church and Gateshead.
Throughout the afternoon we will sing, create, move, laugh and together make The Mouthful Way in song.
No need to read music - we’ll sing some songs by ear and we’ll invent the others as we go along. You’ll also hear a special performance from Mouthful Vocal Ensemble to round off the day.
