E.B.2.3 Naus
In this workshop we will mainly work on the idea of Choir. That idea of union where different voices later become one single voice. But it won’t just be a conventional choir group. This time we will also use other people’s voices as a basis, through sound recordings, such as that of a politician giving a speech, a woman talking to her dog, a friend explaining a cooking recipe to another, a youtuber speaking to his audience, among many others.
We will also discover languages that are not our mother tongue. We will learn to speak some new languages and reproduce them.
Since 2012 I have been working on this register as part of the French collective Encyclopedie de la Parole, which explores orality in all its forms, considering that “We are all specialists of the word.
We will all be in a learning position and, at the same time, we will praise the beauty and richness of orality in all its different forms of expression.
ALL TOGETHER is a long term work carried out during the school year of 2019-20 with a class of children from the 6th grade of Escola das Naus.
It includes the development of three artistic workshops and a final presentation to the community.
