Op vrijdag 6 september organiseert Altai Yurt een inspirerende dagworkshop onder begeleiding van vier topzangers uit Tuva.
Deze dag focust op de stijlen Khoomei (basis keelzang techniek met boventonen) en Sygyt (heldere, fluitachtige boventonen). Je leert werken met adem, resonantie, toonvorming en klankcontrole, onder begeleiding van vier professionele musici. Ze demonstreren ook diverse liederen.
Of je nu nieuw bent of al enige ervaring hebt, deze workshop biedt een laagdrempelige maar diepgaande kennismaking met deze eeuwenoude zangkunst – in een kleine groep, met ruimte voor persoonlijke aandacht en oefening.
Je leert praktische technieken, krijgt persoonlijke feedback en oefent samen in een ontspannen, inspirerende setting. Tussen de sessies door is er ruimte voor vragen, improvisatie en gewoon puur genieten!
De dag is volledig verzorgd met thee, snacks en een heerlijk diner in de gastvrije sfeer van Altai Yurt – waar ontmoeting en verdieping centraal staan.
