An introduction to Collaborative Vocal Improvisation with Briony Greenhill. For singers new to the artform, or with a little familiarity and wishing to go over the basics again. For folks who can sing in tune, keep a beat, and want an adventure!

Do you need me to introduce you to CVI? Or have you already encountered Rhiannon, Bobby McFerrin and Motion, The Downbeat, Kelly and Annie’s teaching, or another thread of the vocal improvisation mycellial network?

I am a mushroom in that world. I’ve been practicing since 2010, teaching since 2013, and The Guardian has named me “one of the world’s leading proponents of Collaborative Vocal Improvisation - CVI.”

We will warm up the body and voice, enter into listening into self and other, the moment, the present - the void that amazing creativity comes from.

We’ll practice circle singing, weaving musical patterns together, soloing, improvising with language, opening up the poetic within us. Yes it’s in you! It’s in all of us.

We’ll lie on the floor on Sunday and do a deep Resonant Body practice; a somatic approach to voice work that goes into your body and gets your full voice out of it.

We take a lunchbreak each day 1-2pm: bring some food.

We work with kindness, compassion, welcome. But please be able to sing in tune and keep a beat, and that way, we can all make really satisfying music together.

This 2 day deep dive will hopefully leave you with tools and confidence to bring into regular local vocal improvisation sessions. Becoming a serious practitioner usually takes many classes and several years. And it’s a beautiful, beautiful journey.
