Voice workshops with Frank Kane in Ireland inspired by songs from the Republic of Georgia

Working with the essence of the voice as revealed in Georgian song brings insights that can enhance any form of singing and the speaking voice and offers a rich path of self-discovery. FRANK KANE first heard Georgian songs in 1982 and traveled to Georgia for the first time in 1984. This was the beginning of a long-standing passion which led him to found theKartuli Ensemble in the United States and later the Marani and Irinola ensembles in France. His teaching approach uses exercises with vibration, the raw material of our voices and our selves, to shed light on the principles that underlie this singing. These workshops will be an oppportunity to explore our voices and ourselves.
