Joint Voices a singing workshop with Mû Mbana and the children of Malafo.

The workshop with multi-instrumentalist, poet and musician Mû Mbana focused on voice, singing and choir with young people of various ages. With the philosophical perspective that music is linked to a spiritual dimension of life and is not just entertainment but a way of connecting with natural forces. So the workshop developed in a sensory way, where numerous vocalisation exercises were done, anticipating the resonance of the voice in the body, as a way of activating different reverberations. Mbana spoke about how vocalising different vowels activates different parts of the body.
