Spain, ANDALUCIA - Singing your socks off, playing for pleasure, Kate Daniels, Our beautiful centre near Orgiva, Granada province, southern Spain, 04 Sep 2021
Come and relax in our beautiful centre in the Alpujarras, a stunning mountainous region of Andalucia in southern Spain. Gorgeous vegetarian food, sub-tropical gardens, mountain views, an idyllic pool and traditional-style simple Andalucian accommodation. Meet like-minded people to share the week with. As well as the course, you will also be offered yoga or tai chi, and a day trip into the mountains with a gentle hike and visits to unspoiled mountain villages.
Whether or not you are a secret singer, have never sung before in your life, or sing all the time and in public, come and have a wonderful musical time performing songs from across the world, from the Pacific Islands to the Great American Songbook. On the way we will explore harmony, rhythm, phrasing and improvisation. The emphasis is on fun and enjoyment, not pressure, so you will find you will be able to:
- Subdue the critical voices that make you self-conscious
- Indulge your love of music - be it folk, jazz, blues or beyond
- Notice your confidence building
- Gather together to create wonderful harmonies
- Overcome your nerves
- Uncover hidden talent
- Trust your voice
Musicians are welcome to participate. Some guitars, plus chord charts and backing tracks, will be available.
