What is CircleSinging Anyway?
CircleSinging can be described lots of ways: vocal improvisation, vocal "jamming", add-a-part/change-a-part,
vocal orchestra, "voicestra", a "drum circle" for singers, or just plain "make it up" singing.
It's done all over the world in countless different ways and it dates back to the earliest forms of human singing.
CircleSinging happens all over the Bay Area & all over the world. Our particular circle is unique due to leadership
of the members of the acapella group SoVoSo. These talented singers take turns leading our circles, bringing a high level
of musicianship, fun, and excitement to the circle. Once they get a circle going, they often step out of the middle for a
while, giving others a chance to solo, or even lead.
CircleSinging can last as long you want.
We do 2-hour circles once a month in a church hall in Oakland. Once a year we do a 12-hour circle called Singing for Your
Life. People come and go, drop in & out of these circles, making it different every time.
CircleSinging
is a "mistake-free zone." Come try it -- it's fun!
