DEVA PREMAL & MITEN
Ravi is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, singer, pioneer of overtone singing and one of the longest established Western players of the kora (West African harp). His music is the result of a lifetime exploring the edge, through world music, tribal cultures, overtone singing and a journey that has taken him from India to the Amazon.

As well as over 20 CDs, international performances and workshops and the invention of the electric/stereo kora, Ravi has also worked with artists such as Nigel Kennedy, Jon Lord, Phil Manzanera, Baaba Maal, Dr John, Ronu Majumdar and Marlui Miranda. The most recent albums are “Teacher in The Forest” with Charlotte Mabon, “Two Rivers” with Adrian Freedman and “Songs for the Golden Age”

Ravi leads Voice Events in the form of “Kirtan & Cacao” and “Overtone Singing and Voice Workshops and Retreats” which take participants on a transformational journey of discovery into the voice

WORKSHOP DETAILS
A voice workshop with a focus on overtone singing and developing the power of the singing voice. Ravi is known for his ability to convey both the technical aspects as well as the esoteric and healing components of overtone singing. Even for those who do not think of themselves as singers, these workshops give confidence in finding your natural and powerful voice. Those of you who are already singers will find greater depths and possibilities in your voice. Finding our natural sound, breathing from the diaphragm, creating the mouth shapes for overtone singing, expanded listening and finally, hearing our own overtones clearly. We shall also sing together as a choir and explore the self healing and healing effects of harmonics
“Breath and the sound of the voice are existential imperatives, one cannot wish them away. They connect us directly with our divine souls”

OVERTONE SINGING
Overtone sounds resonate in harmony with nature from the smallest atom to the planets and galaxies. Tuning in to these vibrations using the voice and other instruments allows a deeper contact with the psyche and spirit. As you learn to produce overtones with the voice and listen to the sounds of the gongs, Tibetan bowls and tambura, a heightened sensitivity, awareness, peacefulness, cleansing, healing and deepened meditation emerge. This workshop is for people of all abilities. It is not necessary to be able to sing. In the workshop we will make contact with our natural power sound, free the body and breath and learn to produce a variety of overtone sounds...... two tones from the same voice
CHAKRA TONING
The embodied practice of Chakra Toning involves working with the sound and colour of each chakra. Spending 10 to 15 minutes on each of the seven chakras, we tone together as a group creating a circle of sound. This is a multi-dimensional practice, if used on a regular basis can help to support and develop one’s relationship with one’s voice, particularly for singing.

SHORT TESTIMONIALS
I would recommend Ravi's events to anyone of all levels, especially those looking for a more intuitive, embodied and self healing exploration of their voice. Lily Ann Bonny (Singer Songwriter)
Since attending Ravi's vocal workshop I have discovered a passion for throat singing, not only has my confidence grown by reclaiming my inner harmony but I also found that my thyroid has improved. Looking forward to future sessions

Hi Ravi, I wanted to get in touch to say thank you so much for last night- Hearing your overtone singing last night really cracked my heart open Seraphina

I attended Ravi's voice workshop and it was an amazing experience - I felt such a wonderful peace and elation for days after. Ravi has the energy of a shaman and I can't wait to do more of his workshops. Nikola Cavanagh (Magazine Editor)

“Ravi is one of a kind special human being. His expertise in sound and voice is exceptional. Highly intuitive, with the most amazing loving energy this workshop was flowing in magic from start to finish! It was exactly what my soul was longing for and the beginning of a new chapter for my voice and how to bring this medicine forth for my healing and for the joy of many. Infinite gratitude Melina
“Ravi is a sound wizard who has an amazing ability to create a blissful experience, his music has got history and stories, and he can bring a group alive by creating a lively atmosphere and inviting all to sing through call and response. Time flies when immersed in the sounds and singing and this presence awakens one from the inside out. I highly recommend this experience to everyone”
