BENWISKIN SINGS: COMMUNITY SINGING WITH UNA MCCANN

Overview
A joyful one day singing workshop - natural voice, rich harmonies, uplifting songs. All voices welcome. No experience needed.
Una McCann
Una is based in Belfast, Northern Ireland where she works as a choir leader, songwriter and musician. She has been leading groups in harmony since her school days and has been working professionally with adult choirs for 15 years.
Una currently runs 6 Natural Voice style choirs singing with over 250 people each week. She also enjoys running singing holidays and retreats. A highlight last year was conducting a choir of 250 people representing County Antrim as part of BBC Sings at the iconic Ulster Hall in Belfast.
Una loves inviting our natural voices out to play and especially enjoys the joy and connection that emerge within a group when we sing together. She encourages a group to be wholly present, to listen intently, to be sensitive to each other and to appreciate what we can achieve in this moment as this group.
Years of experience of singing Motown and funk classics in bands is evident in her compositions, which are often funky harmony songs with a Gospel influence. Her songs are sometimes rousing and uplifting, bringing you to your feet for a boogie and sometimes slow and achingly beautiful with rich harmonies that will soften any hard edges.
Una writes melodies and words that will stay in your head for weeks to come. Her joy and wonder for life is infectious and comes across through her popular songs.
Every voice is welcome - especially shy singers or people who have been told not to sing.
Come and be a part of a beautiful harmonious day of song.
