Sound cascades, palatal leaps, animal sounds, Super*wo*man, rock ’n’ roll. In this seminar—a brand-new offering at the HfMT!—we explored virtuoso, circus-style contemporary vocal acrobatics. We experimented with a wide variety of vocal techniques from around the world, ranging from Bulgarian women’s choir singing to beatboxing and growling. We present our results through selected works of contemporary music, including both classics and new compositions.
Works for solo voice (John Cage: ARIA, Luciano Berio: Sequenza III per voce femminile), duets with piano (e.g., Katharina Rosenberger: E.E. Cummings Miniatures, Wolfgang von Schweinitz: Papiersterne (excerpts), and others).
