What does it mean to be in a song? Are you guiding the song or are you seduced by it? How can you move a song and transform it? How can you become one with your song and embody it more? How can you be moved by a song? How can you move the one who listens? How can you let the body, the physical sensations, the imagination, the space, the group, influence your way of singing and free your vocal expression?

In the morning, we will explore the landscape of the human voice with a warm-up to prepare the body to sing. We will open the voice and find different colours, develop the art of listening to others and yourself, look for dynamic sources of sounds, and develop your vocal expression. In the afternoon, we will work on one song that you have brought with you and learned by heart, and we will explore the expression, the connection with it, and different ways of approaching it in order to find emotion and ease in singing.

I help create the conditions which allow students' vocal potential to emerge, while starting from who they really are. I rely on those paramount human qualities, which are for me listening, respect, kindness and empathy. I encourage students to go further, to explore releasing their fears and resistance, to venture into unknown territories. I help them to release their voice, so that it resonates throughout their entire body.

For me, the aim of this work is to enable everyone to be touched by their own voice, and to encounter themselves.

The voice has the magic of things that cannot be labelled, that escape classifications.
My voice, if the voice has an owner, is constructed and deconstructed in relation, always in relation.
In relation to what surrounds me, in relation to the other, be it a person, a landscape, a fly.
Learning to accept all the nuances of the voice. Understanding that all expressive variations are part of a great vocal ocean, rich and diverse and that everything is my voice. There are parts of the ocean that I visit more often and others only from time to time.
Working with the voice has helped me to delve deeper and navigate better in the terrain of emotions, relationships, and in some way in the meaning of existence.
Malerargues is a place where my voice has had the opportunity to express myself freely, where my voice has been validated and valued no matter what vocal form it took. I am eternally grateful to Carol Mendelsohn for her applause for my chicken sounds.
