Join us for a day of exquisite and uplifting Georgian singing! Under the expert guidance of visiting teacher Carl Linich, we will learn three-part songs in a variety of styles from different regions of Georgia (Caucasus), a country renowned for its extraordinary musical heritage. The workshop is suitable for singers of all abilities and you don’t need to be able to read music: songs will be taught by ear and word sheets will be provided.
Carl Linich (USA) is an internationally acclaimed singer and teacher of polyphonic (multipart) songs from Georgia. A fluent Georgian speaker who lived in Georgia for 10 years, Carl has been honoured by the Georgian government for his work in helping to promote and preserve Georgian folk music. He is a member of Trio Kavkasia and also directs the Supruli Ensemble in New York and the Georgian Choir at Bard College.
You may bring your own lunch. There is also a selection of shops and cafes nearby.
