The Labophonique collective invites you to take part in a giant circlesong workshop. Popularised by Bobby McFerrin, the principle of the circlesong is based on an “almost” ancestral form of improvised singing in which a group of singers, placed in a circle, pass on one or more vocal patterns to each other. Come and experience this ephemeral creation as an active participant, guided by the members of the collective. Whether your singing voice is still a mystery to you, or whether you’re an opera singer, “Singing for all” events are always an opportunity to surprise yourself.
In 2020, a small group of friends – actors, musicians, clowns, performers and teachers – get together every Tuesday to practise vocal improvisation. This small group quickly grows and the members of the collective form and develop a common language. Today, this self-managed collective is an ensemble with a wide range of timbres and desires. Constantly on the lookout for new forms and devices for improvisation, the collective gradually shares its explorations with a wide variety of audiences.
