disc 2 - soaring

This music will take you on a journey through a variety of a cappella landscapes. Fly with the six of us as we interweave and explore the edges of sound. You will be supported and challenged to learn new forms, stretch your voice, blend, and sing all the feelings, textures, and colors you can imagine.

7/4 and 6/8 time signatures open us to the vocal possibilities of these world music grooves. Be part of the ensemble or try trading solos with Joey and Rhiannon. Pay particular attention to the 7/4 polyrhythm - see if you can count the seven beats. Try breaking the beats into four plus three (1-2-3-4, 1-2-3) or three plus four. Notice the call and response possibilities with space in between during the 6/8. Dance while you sing to anchor the rhythm in your body - how can you resist?!
