The voice is the musical instrument we use every day. But humming to yourself is one thing; singing in a way that makes others want to listen is quite another. At the concert, you will discover how to develop your vocal apparatus, why singing in a choir is beneficial, and how the singing of village grandmothers differs from that of opera divas. You will also hear masterpieces of vocal music spanning nine centuries.
