“Sigh-Sing” in a shorter weekend version is Joanna Kurzyńska’s answer to the needs of those voices who cannot afford longer trips, but want to combine methodological experiences with practical freeing of the voice in song and improvisation.

Joanna Kurzyńska (Designated Linklater Teacher) will guide participants and their voices towards greater understanding, awareness and vibration. Drawing on the work of her masters, including Kristin Linklater, the host wants to give the voice its due freedom and liberty, allowing it to express itself honestly.

The work will be divided into individual and group experience. Each participant will have the opportunity to open their own path of working with voice. As a group, we will be able to experience the power of support provided by sharing our voices and meeting each other through song, conversation, breathing, movement and silence.

The workshop is open and does not indicate any level of advancement. Due to the individual approach to participants, everyone will have the opportunity to work with their voice according to their needs and capabilities.

Vocal and acting skills are not a requirement. Everyone has the right to work with their voice for individual reasons.

Work elements:

  • physical training stimulating body-head-voice communication
  • voice warm-ups with elements of Kristin Linklater’s “Free Your Voice” method
  • combining Linklater’s main idea with a sung voice – How can a breath turn into a song?;
  • resonators – working with basic resonators and their importance in using the voice;
  • “harmony of common singing” – a common meeting in the richness of traditional polyphonic songs;
  • Free vocal improvisation as a way to remove blockages

The work will be a physical exercise, and the participants will interact with each other, both vocally and physically.

Freeing the Natural Voice According to Kristin Linklater: Sigh of Relief

streaming live / polish with english subtitles (dodać takie info?)

I invite you to meet the essence of Kristin Linklater’s Freeing the Natural Voice method – “a sigh of relief”. This is a fundamental step in this approach to working with the voice, as well as a basic tool for regulating the tension that often occurs unconditionally in everyday life. Sighing helps to release tension. Learning to stimulate the impulse to sigh becomes the key to re-educating the system of thinking about the “correct” production of the voice. “Maximum effect with minimum effort” is the hallmark of great art. Great art grows out of truth. “Minimum effort’ requires full engagement with the inner processes of imagination and emotion that stimulate the voice to express inner truth.
