PEIA WORKSHOPS FOR FESTIVALS AND GROUPS
Peia currently offers voice workshops while on tour in tandem with concerts and festivals. The beginner, intermediate, and advanced singer will glean plenty of useful and practical exercises to incorporate on their singing path.
Each one of us is gifted with a uniquely beautiful voice. Discover your true voice through an embodied practice, engaging natural breath and resonance techniques, guided by the wisdom and expertise of Peia Luzzi. Learn to harness the power of your breath, deepen and expand your breath capacity and sing from your core. Unlock the natural resonance of your voice and learn to direct sound, and move it through the body as well as the room. Working with tools from the ancient Indian alchemy of Raga we will enter a deeply meditative practice known as ‘The Yoga of Sound.’ We also gain deeper understanding of the physical workings of the voice from Vocal Pedagogy (the science of the voice) and learn to sing with grace, power, flexibility and ease.
The First part of the workshop focuses on vocal embodiment and cultivation tools while the second part implements the tools via the learning of a song from one of the many traditions that Peia has studied.
“My journey with world folk song traditions began many years ago while studying Opera at New England Conservatory in Boston. Much to the dismay of my Opera professors, I found myself enthralled with the alluring beauty and mystery of traditional folk music. This fascination, along with a bit of old Irish wanderlust, poised me for a journey that led me to seek lost culture and reconnect with the songs of my ancestors in ancient Europe.” - Peia
