It is the centre of the international network of Roy Hart Theatre voice studies and holds workshops all year round that attract students from throughout the world.

Back to Workshops Overview[/wpml_if]
[/vc_column][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id="display-workshop-info[/vc_column]Workshop hours:
- course over 5 and a half days - stops on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
- Tuesday to Sunday: 9H-12h30
- Tuesday Wednesday: 14h30-17h
- Thursday Friday: 14h30-18h
- Saturday: 14h30-17h30Program:
Véronique and Marianne invite you to take a step on the path of vocal improvisation – a path of self-knowledge, leading to a deeper, more authentic relationship with yourself, with others, with the world. Both are singers and improvisers and they will accompany you as you allow your inner music to be expressed through improvised singing.They will give you tools to help with instantaneous composition – be it physical, vocal, or musical – through intuitive listening, use of rhythm, intention, characters, relation to silence, contrasts, etc. Notions like melody, unisson, counterpoint or ‘gibberish’ will be addressed.
Musical inspiration will reveal itself as you open up to your breathing, to your emotions and sensory perceptions, and to the images and stories of your imagination. Times of in-depth research will alternate with playful games, leading you to explore the extended registers, resonance-spaces and various textures of your voice, to nurture your imagination.
In this space of artistic freedom, as we develop our listening, deepen our presence and savour the pleasure of sounds, mindful in the moment of what wants or needs to be said or sung, we will share our “aliveness” in the present moment and give expression to our limitless vocal potential.
The workshop will include physical and vocal warm-ups, individual and group lessons, vocal exploration, meditations, improvisations. Musical instruments are welcome !

[/vc_column]VOICE IN ARTISTIC EXPRESSION (GROUP 2021/2022)( )
“Owning our voices” by Margaret Pikes – book release
Owning our Voices: Vocal Discovery in the Wolfsohn-Hart Tradition,” by Margaret Pikes and Patrick Campbell, published in January 2021 by Routledge in their Voice Studies Series.
Workshops in Malérargues and around the world
Roy Hart Voice Workshops in Malérargues are held mainly between March and November. During that season there are also performances, open rehearsals, social events to attend.
Advanced Training to deepen the work is offered in different formats: Intensive Workshops over a longer period of time and Teacher Training Groups.
Internationally a vivid network of voice teachers descended from the work of Roy Hart Theatre, we also announce these workshops here.
Resources
The heart, soul, and body hunger for deep expressions – of joy, yearning, grief, ecstasy, pain, uncertainty, purpose. This vocal journey thrives on listening, searching, play, risk and ultimately, the discovery of form and ease.Marya Lowry
Malérargues is my second home. When I think of it, I remember sharing deep times with my dear friends Robert, Marita, Jonathan. It is the navel of the world, the mother-house of this really unique and beautiful exploration of the voice and being.Susanne Weins
Singing is breath moved by feeling when words no longer hold their meaning ... and given time, singing moves life into greater meaning especially as the world loses touch with its feeling.Clara Silber
Singing is a way to connect through the voice. Listen with the soul into the body – or with the body into the soul. The voice makes it all audible.Walli Höfinger
Moving while sounding, sounding while moving. We are exploring the unknown, and there is no end in sight. I have never heard a bad voice.Akhmatova Samuels
The quality of listening I have found in Malérargues is the most sensitive I have ever experienced, without any kind of judgement or expectation. Malérargues is the place where you can accept your vulnerability and find the power of your voice.Jesús Muñoz
“Learning how to sing is learning how to love.“Alfred Wolfsohn
Singing in Malérargues means to grow your sound body, free your deepest inner being, tame the unknown of your self. It is to commune with yourself and with others.Agnès Dumouchel
“Singing“ is an inclusive term for me that covers any action that involves vocal expression. It is inclusive in the sense that it seeks to renegotiate our perceptions both of ourselves and others. Its primary aim is one of communication on all levels.Kevin Crawford
Dancing my voice and singing my dance brings me in direct contact with my inner space.Rosemarie Anton
When I truly sound, my real whole-range voice, ‘I’ cease to exist: all the voices of judgement, classification, evaluation… disappear and I’m truly one with the world.Orly Asody Bergman
Malérargues is a magical place charged with invisible energy from all the years of voice work - the ground from which we can take off, grow and sing life itself.Esther Knappe
For me flying is the best metaphor for singing. In order to soar up to the sky we need a great hold on the ground, good energy, a lot of confidence, relaxation and vigour. Then, we can find a way to open up to imagination...Renata Roagna
Our voices are very much bigger than we think, certainly bigger than we normally use, and there is a profound connection between our voice and our self, which is in turn very much bigger than we realise or normally admit to.Ian Magilton
For me, singing is connection, self-knowledge, accuracy, expression, wisdom.Paula Molinari
To sing for me is an act of freedom, letting go, connecting to my emotions, my physical sensations and my whole being. Singing makes me deeply alive.Veronique Caudal
To find your VOICE is to find your WAY! Unite body and voice to find the upright human being. Go beyond what you thought were your limits, feed your internal music to express your true voice without cheating or pretence.Michèle Laforest
There is nothing that gets you closer to your-self than your voice, there is nothing that gets you closer to the Other, then The voice.Zwaantje de Vries
Singing: The opening and liberation of the individual’s potential through singing, in connecting with the conscious awareness of the moment in the Here and Now. “Concentration, intensity, expression".Alfred Wolfsohn
Singing is taking pleasure in vibrating, with a desire to express oneself freely.Miguel Alonso Gutierrez
Singing is a personal sound form, just like your physical body.Ulrik Barfod
Singing is ex-pression. For me to sing is to free the voice, by releasing the body and its tensions and listening to one’s feelings and deep emotions, one’s essential being.Odile Gence
Malérargues is a safe place for letting the voice turn the soul inside out, touching secret memories hidden in the body and give them rhythm, music and meaning.Fia Adler Sandblad
For me, the philosophy of the Roy Hart work begins with Alfred Wolfsohn. His lifework inspired us to find a new world. The soul of singing, the music in each one of us, needs careful listening, observation and empathy: these are my hard worked-for aims.Kaya M. Anderson
I find a joy that's always renewed in the emergence of a sound, of a voice - like the pleasure I find in the appearance of light. I enjoy shadow also: the velvet of a voice, the depth as well as the metal, the curves of the voice.Pascale Ben
Singing, as defined by Alfred Wolfsohn and Roy Hart, is an extraordinary idealistic and demanding proposal – I am especially interested in its Talmudic backdrop. Protestant enthusiasm often takes over: its cult is also called singing. This, from a baroque, neopagan ‘goy’.Enrique Pardo
The voice for me is a necessity that goes below speech and beyond the song. It is a return to the raw material of the voice, a subterranean and atavistic space little touched on in art.Daniela Molina
To resound in life: the emotive voiceAlbino Bignamini
A smiling field full of contradictions, fear and love, sadness and happiness, emptiness and fullness…, resistance, freedom, letting go, releasing. Always a challenge, always good. Finding the pleasure. Finding myself, myself in others. Unity.Nuria Inglada
Singing is my sounding wings unfolded. Malérargues is a link to singing myself back home.Emanuella Lazzerini
I follow my intuition in the moment, based on what I perceive to be the need of each student's unique voice. I guide people to connect with their creative impulses, accepting the sound “just as it is," and expressing what their voices have to say.Audrey Pernell
"The voice is the muscle of the soul."Alfred Wolfsohn
Malérargues was built on a dream of a remarkable man, Roy Hart, and some exceptional people who worked with him.Linda Wise
The voice has become my life companion, my gauge of personal and artistic work, my inspiration. And I love to share them .Marianne Le Tron
“ Singing“ allows me to dynamically explore many different qualities of sound, so that with time my capacity to express myself both as a singer and as a human being is enhanced. More in touch with myself and my voice I can be more in touch with others.Saule Ryan
The Roy Hart Theatre approach works at the nexus of body, voice, self-knowledge, theatre and music. This exploration allows us to build bridges and increase unity within ourselves.Laurent Stéphan
Malérargues: A place to find oneselfNadine Rodilla
Malérargues is for me the beautiful and important heart of the Roy Hart community. It is the meeting place for people who have experienced a Roy Hart moment that made such an impact on them that it created a longing for more.Mariane Siem
How did a bunch of baby boomers come to own an amazing place like Château de Malérargues and its thirty or so hectares? Because of the charisma of Roy Hart, and thanks to the financial intrepidness of his friend Davide Monty Crawford. The rest, in all modesty, is small print.Enrique Pardo
Awe says in the video of his lesson to Roy, “more body” - this is the Key to the work. Everyone thinks they have a body, but in reality they only have a head. What does the ear hear when there is more body? The answer to this takes time and care.Paul Silber
Singing for me means connecting with my intimate self. Being entwined with my breath, life’s breath, the breath of living beings. Merging with distant echoes from my deepest hiding place. Surprising myself, huddling down into my own resonances.Mathilde Fabre
A suspended moment of sound coming from lived experience: dreams, thoughts, opinions, emotions, sensations, nourished by pleasures and conflicts. Past and future become present in sound leaving the body, sound coming into oneself.Andrés Zará
At the Roy Hart Centre, we learn from workshops, from passionate discussions over meals with fellow students, from conversing with nature, and the place itself, which has a soul of its own. At Malérargues, the apprenticeship is constant.Maryline Guitton
"Singing" happens when a person’s whole body, senses and imagination are totally engaged in creating vocal sound, whilst focusing on a given note, image or word. This requires many hours of dedicated work with a teacher who is able to "sing".Noah Pikes
Singing is Connection: to self, to others, to the world.Phil Timberlake
Singing for me is breathing in with my ears and my soul – and breathing out this inspiration with my voice.Edda Heeg
In Singing we appreciate ourselves, the world, nature and the people who are with us.Yehudi Menuhin
Singing is not just a question of vocal technique. It is a dynamic artistic and human process, an opening to oneself and the world - an intensive work which involves, effort, discipline, humility and the capacity to look and listen.David Goldsworthy
