Women Circle Sing Second Sundays - North Bay Women

Circlesinging is an ancient community ritual where people of good will gather together in the shape of a circle with a guide who leads improvised patterns and creates music in the moment. The singing is meant to fill up the space and bodies of all who share the experience. Through the use of movement, sound and sometimes words, we collectively create rhythmic patterns and melodic structures to add to the flow and depth of the experience. The purpose of this gathering is to elevate the spirit. Women Singers of all levels welcome. Please arrive healthy. 30 women max. The second sunday Women’s Circle Sing is held at a private venue on private land in Kenwood, Valley Of The Moon, Sonoma County, CA.

Singers wanted! We will explore aspects of breath, voice, body, group mind, wisdom of music, and belonging within the context of collaborative vocal improvisation based on the Vocal River Traditions

7 Sacred Essential Elements of Song (7SEES)
Collaborative Vocal Improvisation Based on Vocal River Practices

What is this workshop?
This is an experiential workshop for singers to increase their confidence through embodied learning. We will be working with form and practice, building ensembles, soloing, using murmuration, word, melody, and rhythm.

Who is this course for?
Experienced Singers who want to learn how to improvise in ensembles through vocal improvisation, Singer-Songwriters who want to embody practices that will increase the flow of creativity, to tap into the powers of creation so they can free their constraints in songwriting, improvisers who want to take their craft to the next level and gain tools for teaching others, singers who love the idea of collaboration and want to cultivate co-creation in their lives, singers who want to develop new ways to use their voice and increase confidence in their capacity to collaborate. Singers who want to use their voice in ceremony or song as prayer. Singers who want to prepare for All The Way In, but aren’t yet ready to apply.

What are the 7 Sacred Essential Elements of Song?
The 7 Sacred Essential Elements of Song (7SEES) is an emerging body of work developed by Linda Stonestreet. It’s a way of mapping spontaneous collaborative composition. Seeing the coordinates of songs that emerge in vocal improvisation through the lens of 7 organizing principles of consciousness called the 7 Saywas. Using the Vocal River Traditions, we will observe ourselves and map songs through the 7 lenses of Breath, Voice, Body, Group Mind, Essence, Belonging and fluidity.

What is Vocal River? It’s The skill and spirit of improvisation.
Course instructor Linda Stonestreet has studied and embodied (since 2016) the 33 detailed concepts, practices and techniques contained in Vocal River framework developed by Rhiannon. These practices are forms for getting into the flow of improvisation. We will work intensely with these forms as a base for this course. We will be sourcing from the Vocal River Lineage of Traditions developed and taught worldwide by Rhiannon.

How do they go together? Vocal River meets the 7SEES.
7 Sacred Essential Elements of Song naturally flow from and through the 33 Vocal River forms, where the spirit of improvisation meets the 7 Sacred Essential Elements of Song for infinite possibilities of creating music in the moment. To develop these practices together is what’s required for maintaining awareness for creating in the moment performances that are interactive, musical, meaningful.
