Tools to approach the main axes of a musical performance
In a 3-days workshop, through playful exercises, vocal and physical training, improve your flexibility, dynamism, coordination, balance, to boost your
stage presence. Create motion sequences, in relation with music and singing. From walk to dance: movement can be an emotional vehicle. Learn how to use it through music.
We will improve how to breathe, sing and improvise, with games, songs and group activities.

LISTENING TO MUSIC
Teachers’ Workshop
with Violaine Fournier and Flore Fruchart
31st March – 1st April 2020
The
artists will welcome you for a playful and pedagogical moment. Teachers
in charge of young children will be able to experiment as a group
exercises that they will then be able to use in their day-to-day
practice at school.
During the workshops, we will go back to the
origin of music and start from the sounds of nature and the everyday
life of a child to build several key elements of music : rhythm, melody,
orchestra and, of course, listening.
We will undertake our
journey through songs, instrumental practice, body percussions, movement
and space exploration with group games.
Every participant will leave the workshop with a tool box.
