Singing for Body and Soul: Autumn

Autumn: Autumnal Splendor and Abundance in Songs and Texts

The enjoyment singing sessions of the Weinviertel Educational Academy have already become a tradition: We gather in a circle and enjoy singing a variety of songs together – from folk songs to songs from around the world, as well as spirituals and church music. However, the enjoyment singing sessions have also evolved over the years and today encompass more than just singing:

We want to pay even more attention to our body as our very own instrument.
We train to manage our breathing well while singing, to shape it, and to find balance through singing.
We want to convey songs as messages in small groups in a sonorous way, to be heard, to listen ourselves, and to provide feedback, thus expanding our program with creativity and expression.
To complement the songs, sayings and life wisdoms will bring atmosphere to the room, and during a break with culinary snacks from the region, mutual acquaintance and exchange of experiences will not be neglected. The sheet music will be provided, and I am happy to accept song suggestions from you for further processing. It’s wonderful that our enjoyment singing sessions will continue to be accompanied in the tried-and-true manner by Michael on the guitar.

An invitation to joyful and melodious singing!
