CheerSing workshops update
The CheerSing workshops (part of the Yorkshire Festival 2014 and the Tour de France) are proving to be lots of creative fun – with an enthusiastic response from participants. We’re winning over keen singers and folk reluctant to raise their voices in public – let along sing. Making up and chanting slogans about life and bicycles is the way to go it seems. So is finding new ways of making a bigger, brighter more efficient vocal sound. Age is no barrier, either. So far participants have ranged from 9 months (the babe lay on the floor clapping along) to, as I was conspiratorially told, “…well over 80, you know”. There are still some more dates to come…Check out the gig list. – Louise
