I.G.O. Improvisational Groove Orchestra :: Vocal Workshop #15 :: last session!

“Above and Beyond – Part 2”  :: Gerichtstr. 23, front house, ground floor (VH / EG)

19:30 – doors open, open greeting zone social time

20:00 – warm up and session begin

Here is a small sample of what we did during the first session with Ben Jeffries and the Berlin “Singing In The City” Meetup group: “Above and Beyond

The mission this week is to continue creating the soundtrack for the upcoming Baumhaus crowd-funding video that will be launched this summer.

After we warm up and listen to a bit of the first session, we will continue to riff on an original song called “Above & Beyond” as a soulful gospel spiritual-esque jam out groove. Then we will also just open up the sound space to other fun improvisational compositions of the moment…

This promises to be another a highly engaging and fun evening! … And the last session in Baumhaus 1.0 before the renovations begin… No worries, we will meet in the great outdoors in some sessions this summer!

Info and details for how this workshop normally works ( EN / DE )

*Please try to come before 8 when we start warming up so you don’t interrupt the flow…
