Workshop: Afternoon A Cappella with Simply Singing CIC

BUY TICKETS

The dream team are back together again! Join Alice and Louise for an easy going, joyful singing experience.

Everything is taught by ear so threre is no need to read music, we believe everyone can sing so no experience necessary, just be prepared to have a go – we will never ask you to sing on your own! We believe everyone has a singing voice and create a warm and inclusive atmosphere so everyone can join in.

All singing is unaccompanied so you will revel in the sound of pure voices just as nature intended.

The workshop will be hosted by The Anthony Burgess Foundation in Central Manchester. The building is one of the oldest mills in Manchester, so you will have a real Mancunian experience singing there. The cafe will be open for us so we can have some drinks before the workshop and in the break – please note the cafe does not serve food.

A carefully curated repertoire will take you around the world, down memory lane and get you up on your feet (if you want to!) and singing out loud and proud. We can’t wait to see you!
