THE SCHOOL OF THE VOICE

The School Abroad

The School of the Voice is an innovative training program designed by the Vox Mundi Project. The courses offer an in-depth exploration of the voice as an instrument to:

• make music
• awaken individual innate creativity
• free self-expression
• improve musicianship
• focus and relax the mind
• engender a sense of confidence and community
• heal unwanted feelings and physical illness

The approach is integral, cross-cultural, and systematic. The highly experiential training workshops offer a precise integration of the Eastern and Western approach to singing as a therapeutic art. For over twenty years singers, music therapists, teachers, and students have learned technical, progressive ways to apply vocal arts in their work. As a result of the Vox Mundi Project educational programs, this multi-modal approach is now practiced by hundreds of musicians and therapists internationally. The only source of this kind of training in North America is the Vox Mundi Project.

 

THE METHOD

Vocal development, mind-training, and healing strategies are integrated. A broad range of cross-cultural vocal techniques are explored through the practice of both indigenous and classical forms from cultures as diverse as Tibet, Brazil, the Amazon, Europe, Africa, and India.

THE RESULTS

The voice is freed and refined. Students discover which musical culture opens personal doorways to revitalize their work and enrich their life. Musical imagination is nurtured and a sense of artistic confidence is enhanced. Participants are able to apply skillfully a broad range of cross-cultural vocal technologies to facilitate transformative work with themselves and their clients
