HWMF started a Community singing project with bi-monthly sessions.These sessions are all about using music as a tool to connect people together and create the sense of a community. Communities around the world have made used the simple act of singing together to boost their morale, bring each other together, and gain energy. HWMF is doing a Community singing project with bi-monthly sessions. The motivation is simply to feel each others' energy and understand what it is like to sing with a room full of people. It is expected that participants have a basic interest in learning songs from all over the world in different languages and historical contexts! For this reason, we have set the minimum age to 12 years. So if you are fond of singing just for the sheer joy of it, this is the place to be! If you haven’t attended the last sessions, don’t worry – you can join any session fresh. If you have – don’t worry either – we don’t repeat repertoire or warm-ups so it is going to be new every time! Lullabies are probably the one song type that is sung everywhere in the world – the common denominator of music itself. All of us have been sung to sleep. In this session, we will explore lullabies sung around the world, which are written in very different styles – some major, some minor, and some exotic scales. An example lullaby we would be doing is: “Fi la nana, e mi bel fiol” from Italy! Tejaswinee Kelkar, our course director, is doing her MS at IIIT Hyderabad. She has studied an Associate Diploma in Western Classical theory and composition as well as Sangeet Visharad in Hindustani Classical music and is locally part of the choir group the Deccan Voices.
