Space is available on this event!
Join choir leader Suus Gooch for a weekend of scrumptious harmony singing.
As Winter begins to loosen its hold and the first signs of Spring gradually emerge, we’ll gather to share songs that warm the heart and lift the voice, gently waking us from winter hibernation and taking us towards lighter evenings and brighter days.
Expect three and four part harmony songs, both known and new, all taught by ear. No experience needed.
Susannah (“Suus”) Gooch’s workshops are about the connection, presence and joy that arise through shared song. She brings expert musicality and a light energy to create sessions that will have you humming all the way home, invigorated by feet-tapping rhythms and beautiful harmonies.
Suus is a choir leader based near Bristol. As a former director of a choir at the University of Gloucestershire and co-director of the Gasworks Choir in Bristol, Suus is also an accomplished song arranger, ceilidh leader and violinist. She is a Natural Voice practitioner, meaning her workshops are open to all regardless of musical background or experience. Nervous singers are especially welcome.
