About this Event
Ho Bina – to sing / dance in Sesotho language
If you have a voice you can sing, if you have feet you can dance!
Welcome to Ho Bina Choir – a community musical group celebrating medicine music from around the world!
This will include traditional English folk songs, as well as mantras in Sanskrit and medicine songs sung in Spanish and Portuguese!
Our sessions will be on the 1st and 3rd Fridays 7-9pm of each month:
17th January
7th February
21st February
7th March
14th March
What to expect:
This project aims to bring people from varied cultural and musical backgrounds, no previous musical experience needed! Catarina will be arranging different songs to be learnt by ear and sung in different groups and harmonies. Every session will start with some voice activation, as well as a vocal warm up. There will be a break halfway through to chat & mingle!
After 3 sessions throughout October and November, we would love to host a Christmas concert showcasing our work and making it visible to more people who wish to join our community!
Facilitators:
This group will be led by Catarina Carvalho, a trained classical singer who has been exploring mantra chanting and medicine song for the last four years. Catarina is also a community singing groups’ leader and a sound healer.
We will be assisted by Alex Dmochowski, a professional saxophone player who has been playing music from varied and rich cultures since a young age. Alex is currently playing in bands with musicians from Ghana, India, South America, as well as leading his own band.
Hosting and playing with us, we’ll have Dada Da’naviira Brc. a yogic monk of Ananda Marga. An artist and musician who has travelled around the globe by teaching the science of meditation, yogic dances, Kirtan mantras, Bhajans and traditional tantric yogic practices applied in modern life.
