Overtone singing in Chateau, France with Borg Diem Groeveld

I have been doing a summer course with Borg Diem Groeneveld in Chateau, France, last week.
I am a student of Borg for 2 years now and this week i had the opportunity to sing in 3 Roman churches for the first time. It was a wonderful experience.
There were 16 persons singing and the overtones seemed to come from all places in the church.

Collaboration and visualization

MYSTERIES OF THROAT SINGING

Throat singing has none of these parameters.

The many styles of throat singing don't need songs or words - vocals are… Continue

Das Generationen überschreitende Musik-Ensemble!

Das Generationen überschreitende Musik-Ensemble!

Das 1. Fujara.ch - Grillfest hatte sich

am 25. 05 zu einem ausserordentlichen Anlass entwickelt. Die Obertöne von Fujara's, Didgeridoo's ,Konzovka's und Windharfe harmonierten zum knistern des Feuers.

Im Mittelpunkt war am Anfang das Feuer, dass entfacht wurde, als Rolf und seine Frau von Kerns, am Bachtel eintrafen. Wir stimmten uns gleich mit Fujara und Didgeridoo ein, die perfekt miteinander harmonierten.

Returned from Sweden

I have just returned with overtonechoir Spektrum from our first choir tour! We were in Sweden. I would like to thank to Göesta Peterssen and Midnights Choir for invitation and fantastically kind hosting of our choir members in homes of families of MidnightsChoir-members. I felt like home - and most of us felt similarily, we were talking about it on our way home.

We had 9 concerts in total. 2 of them in Germany and 1 in Denmark - on our ways: there… Continue
