Modern neuroscience is affirming what vocalists and shamans have
known for years: Singing is healthy for you; and specific vocal
styles that play on harmonic overtones stimulate the sense of well-being.
Harmonic overtones are embedded within sacred choral music performed worldwide.
In this workshop, you will hear and learn how Tibetan monks,
Gregorian chanters and Mongolian overtone singers create the powerful
healing and meditative qualities associated with ritual chanting and
overtone harmonics.
A complementary instructional DVD is bundled with the workshop.
Don Hill is a former host of Tapestry on CBC Radio One. His one-hour
television documentary, Chants Encounter profiled harmonic overtone
singers from around the world.
The two-day course has been taught to clinical therapists, hospital
and palliative care workers, musicians and contemplatives of every sort.
"Excellent instructor, a fountain of knowledge," wrote one evaluator.
"Don Hill is top notch!" Course participants have also written, "he
delivers the content clearly and in a stimulating fashion." Overall
the course is "very inspiring."
The workshop will be held on 01 and 02 May at the Westwood Unitarian
Congregation church at 11135 - 65 Avenue (close to the Parkallen
community centre) in Edmonton.
