Circle Singing with Pollyanna

Hi Folks,

Another glorious evening of Circle Singing with Pollyanna. Last night, we had 18 people, with two groups of 4 and two groups of 5. Pollyanna introduced us to a new exercise, singing and vocalizing into our partner's ear. I heard African languages, Native American, Asian and of course English. It was really educational for me. After three rounds of creating music together, we gathered at the piano and Pollyanna accompanied soloists. In the spirit of improvisational singing, Pollyanna played a few bars, choosing the mood of the piece, and the singer joined her, making it up as they go. It was so much fun to experience these happenings. So, if you are into making beautiful sounds, and movements with a great group of folks, ranging from teens to the young elderly, check out www.pollyannabush and come and join us on Wedensday nights at the Fairfax Community Church at 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
