Global Music Collective presents "The Songwriting Bonfire - Group Songwriting Workshop". Join us as we bring you into our creative process in collaborating across boundaries. We will teach what we know, learn about you, and write a song together.
Toto Circle in collaboration with Space of Act and Lilanoor Center for Voice and Music welcomes you to the world of Clowning! All of us have a clown living somewhere inside us. Sometimes our clown energy is visible; sometimes it is just beneath the surface of our consciousness. This workshop will be an exploration to finding your inner clown using improvisation, rhythm, singing and tools from physical theatre. It is designed to free your creativity, ignite your imagination, and help you tap into the joyous spirit of clowning.
A storytelling performance from the Himalayas, brought to life by a colourful artist, with lots of original songs, and music played on a piano accordion. Touching on themes of gender and identity, forests and environment, this is a show that is as topical as it is entertaining.
Entering deeper states of listening and relaxation with one of the oldest and newest sounds of music.
Across various cultures and times, music has been a source of solace and healing for many. Whether as a piece of art that is received or as a piece of work created, the processes of engaging with music are multidimensionally enriching and invigorating. Music is known to aid the body and mind in wellbeing and everyone, from infants to octogenarians have felt the power of music being a space for connection, for upliftment and growth. In this edition of The Journal, we explore the healing space that music creates, both as a tool for therapy as well as for being a therapeutic space. In a tete-a-tete with Celine Burlot, who is a teacher and music therapist at Lilanoor, we delve into the nitty gritties of Music Therapy.
While our regular classes and modules have been ongoing, we've hosted and curated several events over the past few semesters - as a way to collaborate with other artists who we admire, and to engage with more diverse skills and audiences. These events have also given the faculty, the students and the entire Lilanoor family a platform to share, perform and learn more.
Lilanoor in collaboration with Blue Tokai, would like to invite you for another workshop on Music Therapy this weekend - to learn, immerse, explore and relax - over a cup of coffee!
Lilanoor Center for Voice and Music is happy to announce that we are hosting our first ever concert - Light of the Arts! It will be a sharing of performances by students, teachers and friends of Lilanoor.
Some love stories are eternal and among those, is the romance between the voice and the instrument, which have been intertwined for centuries, even millenia. Throughout the world, singers and instrumentalists are developing close relationships and collaborative research in duos, trios and larger ensembles. For this edition of the Lilanoor newsletter, we touch upon some of these connections, but delve deeper into Western classical music, which is in the spotlight this month at the LCVM. Through articles and interviews, we will discover the universe of a singer's favourite polyphonic instruments/instrumentalists, and how these special relationships have developed in the history of Western Classical Music. We will immerse ourselves in the dynamics between a singer and instrumentalists, the repertoires chosen, and the reason why these friendships, can sometimes last a whole career and a whole lifetime.
Singing is a long-life journey to understand the mystery of the voice and the mechanisms of the body and its singing potential. It is about finding the centre, the core of the voice that like an atom, will radiate. Western Classical Singing Technique in particular is built on endless research and studies of methodologies for singers to develop a technique that allows them to comfortably perform in huge concert halls with thousands of people, without any amplification. A weekend where we will try to observe and understand basic mechanisms of Western Classical voice technique practice and theory, through both group and private sessions.
