A weekly class to explore the voice, breathing, and the joy of singing together, while discovering the richness of Latin American and world music repertoires.
Through vocal and breathing exercises, participants develop their vocal confidence, listening skills, and stage presence. Diction and rhythm exercises stimulate memory and concentration, all within a dynamic and friendly atmosphere.
The repertoire offers a journey through songs from around the world, performed in different languages, with a special focus on Latin American music and songs.
No prior musical experience is necessary. The class is open to anyone who wishes to maintain their voice and vitality while sharing the joy of singing and making music in a group.
Singer and music teacher, Monica Prada has a diploma in pedagogy of musical initiation, and in medieval and baroque singing (Conservatory of Geneva and Conservatorio di Vicenza, Italy). At the same time, Monica Prada continues her training and personal research on the songs of the various traditions of her country, with the groups Trinar de la Montaña, and Palenque La Papayera.

VIVIAN' ADAYA
Viviana sees Oriental dance as a unifying force in its traditional form, because it touches upon one’s deepest being. The dance remains both sacred and feminine for her. She recognises the therapeutic powers of dance and it is with this in mind that she transmits her knowledge.
Françoise Atlan
Approach the sung repertoire of the poetic and musical world of the Sephardic tradition, compared to the Arabo-Andalusian repertoire, both emblematic of the "Al Andalous" period.
