SUMMARY:Yiddish Song; Dig deeper. Take it further.  A course for The Workers Circle 5
DESCRIPTION:Yiddish Song; Dig deeper. Take it further. \nThe Workers Circle (New York) ONLINE  Register  here \n\n24\, 29 June\, 1\, 6\, 8 July. 6 – 7.30pm UK time\, 1 – 2.30pm New York \n\nThis practical course focuses on the very core of the Yiddish Song: phrasing\, modes\, language twists\, ornamentation\, harmonies\, singing styles and where it all comes from. We will look at the golden thread between the oldest simple folk songs to newly composed sophisticated originals. \nWhat makes a song sound traditional or modern\, how do we relate to old songs and how has our perception changed in recent times? The context of these songs has drastically changed and so have we. So what’s next? Let’s sing\, let’s hear\, let’s keep moving forwards. \nWe will learn Yiddish songs and make them our own\, some with 2-3 part harmonies. \nAll singers are welcome\, although you will need to be able to follow written music and / or be prepared to learn by ear. \nLed by Polina Shepherd \nRegister  here \nRelated Images:
