About this class

Dive into the fascinating world of Georgian choral music — an intangible UNESCO World Heritage Site. The choir project “The Songs of Georgia” invites you to get to know the archaic, simple sound sequences and the extraordinary harmonies of these traditional folk songs. In a small group, you will experience how your voice becomes part of a powerful polyphonic sound. The course has a particular focus on Christmas and holiday songs from the various regions of Georgia. Weekly breathing, body and voice exercises help you strengthen your vocal presence and train your hearing.
