Love to sing?  What's stopping you? The Organic Women's Chorus is ready to help you start again. We are an informal and welcoming group of women who love singing together in community.  Our weekly meetings are part singing, part support group, part family reunion, and another part singing! The Organic Women's Chorus started in April, 2009 with a group of women who met at Women Making Music camp (more info at www.womamu.org) and wanted to sing together more regularly and locally. We sing a variet …

Following the theatre improv principles of "Yes, and...", non-judgment, and deep listening/participation, we have FUN with sound and music, made from instruments and our own bodies. This is like an adult PLAY group using music. So what does this have to do with CREATIVITY, TECHNOLOGY, INNOVATION, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, COLLABORATION, and KNOWLEDGE SHARING? Improvisation requires MAKING THINGS UP, MAKING DO WITH WHAT YOU HAVE, LISTENING, and PARTICIPATING. Give and take. Offer and receive. Lead and fo …

This group was started to bring carol singing to local San Francisco neighborhoods on Christmas Eve. Come one, come all - neither age nor gender matter, and the more the merrier! Anyone who knows a few carols and would like to bring holiday cheer to our locale should join. Carol sheets are provided. All levels of singers are welcome though some knowledge of the most popular carols does help as does comfort with sight-singing (that is, singing music from a sheet, without accompaniment).

1) Instant Chorus gets you singing a cappella music, hearing the rhythms and chords that form the underpinning of song, and singing cool rhythms in Bobby McFerrin style. Beat out body percussion while you sing, or skip that and simply hold your part. Expand your musicality, hear more in music, and experience the magic of a chorus. Adults and kids over 8 who love to sing are welcome. There are easy parts for beginners and solo opportunities for experienced singers.

Circle Sing is a women’s singing group that sings and harmonizes inspirational music from many traditions.  It’s relaxed, lively, and full of heart. Each session includes breathing and vocal warm ups, a short session in sight singing, and most of all lots of singing and harmonizing. We encourage beginners as well as seasoned group singers. The only thing we ask is that you can carry a tune. (BTW If you can’t carry a tune or are not sure, give Dale a call; she has had great success over the years …

All about Art! By being a part of this meetup you will be responsible for your own safety and well being. You must use your own common sense and not hold the leaders of the group liable for any mishap.

Weekly singing of simple (and increasingly sophisticated) 3- and 4-part harmonies. Big fun. As Brian Eno says: "I believe that singing is the key to long life, a good figure, a stable temperament, increased intelligence, new friends, super self-confidence, heightened sexual attractiveness and a better sense of humor." http://tinyurl.com/5wv9pl There are practice tracks and sheet music under More > Files. Each week we'll publish one song that we're going to learn, so that anyone who attends can p …

I believe that everybody can sing! That's why I've created this voice improvisation meet-up in Berkeley. My approach is inspired by the work of improv legends like David Darling, Bobbie McFerrin and local voice artist David Worm. Using a variety of games, activities and techniques we create one-of-a-kind "music" from next to nothing, using solely the human voice. There are no "wrong" notes and no "bad" voices in The Soundproof Room. The goal is for all participants to enjoy producing their own j …
