The Song Circle is a welcoming drop-in singing group to come together and learn beautiful, simple songs and harmonies taught by ear. You do not need any music or singing experience to come and sing with us, all songs are simple to learn and are taught on the day - this group is for anyone and everyone who enjoys singing.
This session will celebrate Samhain with songs themed around fire and folklore.
This session will be held in the light and welcoming space of The Art Room, The Salisbury Centre, Edinburgh. We will begin with a stretch and vocal warm up before we begin, in total there will be an hour and a half of singing with a break halfway for a cup of tea.
Every session is different with changing songs, seasons and themes (as well as voices and faces!), we sing a variety of songs at each session, these are from all over the world and some are new, some old, their common thread is that they are simple to learn in a short space of time. We will take time to honour the songwriters, stories, history and origins before each song.
You do not need any music or singing experience to come and sing - this group is for anyone and everyone who enjoys singing. Bring your voice!
