Even if it initially seems incredibly difficult to improvise for several voices in the style of Josquin, Ockeghem and Lasso or even Palestrina, some of the basics can be learned very quickly and sound surprisingly good in a group of four or more singers after a short time. It is astonishing that the behavior of group improvisation in this style is not so different from free improvisation.
The weekend course is aimed at anyone who would like to learn polyphonic vocal improvisation, historical solmization and canons according to the rules of the 15th-17th centuries.
Participation with instruments, especially string or wind instruments or percussion, is possible and encouraged.
