New workshop series and choir

[kiva simova]

Kiva has been signed with the Prague Overtone Festival organization to teach a series of workshops throughout 2009 titled 'Vocal Freedom through Overtone Mastery'. The opening event took place on Feb 13-14 with showcase concerts and lectures. 2009 marks the first year that year-round activities will take place in the form of intensive workshop weekends. She will also be forming her own overtone choir with original compositions and experimental works. There will be approximately 14 rehearsals, with the goal of public performance in the autumn. Although the choir is not directly affiliated with Prague Overtone Festival, participation in the workshop weekends is recommended for those new to overtone singing. Separate private lessons may also be arranged.

The first workshop for the series begins March 27, 6-9 pm.

The first choir rehearsal is April 8. They will be Wednesday evenings in Prague.
