Vocal/Voice and Breathing Technique
€ 120Detailed information
Jim Daus Hjernøe demonstrates the capabilities of the human voice in his "Vocalpainting," a revolutionary technique that the professor of rhythmic choir conducting introduces in a two-day workshop. Anyone who enjoys singing and experimenting is welcome to participate.
"Rhythmic Choir Workshop – From Community to Collective Creation by Jim Daus Hjernøe"
This workshop introduces you to one of the latest trends in choral music: "Vocal Painting." The method utilizes vocal sounds and rhythms to create complex musical compositions, often without the use of instruments. This innovative technique, allowing a wide range of vocal styles, has gained international attention. Today, the musician and vocal artist instructs students worldwide and performs with vocal and a-cappella groups such as "Vocal Chaos" or the Jim Daus Vocal Orchestra on major stages.Jim Daus Hjernøe believes that the human voice can be utilized and explored like a musical instrument. Together, we delve into short rhythmic arrangements and learn to create musical moments using Jim's unique musical language. The workshop is open to everyone, regardless of previous choir singing experience. No special prerequisites are needed—just the desire to learn something new and have fun.
Artist / lecturer: Jim Daus Hjernøe
Responsibility as the key for the “Intelligent Choir”
In the workshop, Daus teaches according to his own training concept, the so-called “Intelligent Choir” (TLC) method. The Dane relies on the shared responsibility of every individual choir member - from the leader to the singer. The idea of “musical presence and alertness” serves as the basis for this.Workshop times:
Saturday, March 15th: 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. // 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Sunday, March 16th: 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m
Public final performance: 1:00 p.m. – Alban Berg HallThe aim is to play an active role in the joint final performance. You will have the unique opportunity to work directly with Jim and gain hands-on experience directing a live choral performance.
Join us and experience the magic of Vocal Painting and rhythmic choir leadership with Jim Daus Hjernøe. This course will not only enhance your singing skills but also provide you with a new understanding of creating music collectively. We look forward to welcoming you to this unique and dynamic workshop!

4. - 6.04.Theme: “Calligraphy of the Heart”
Font: Humanistic Italic
Retreating to a spiritual place to immerse ourselves in the creative world of letters allows us to switch off and become free. Ossiach Abbey in Carinthia is a real place of power for me. With a view of the picturesque lake, we get involved in the “Humanistic Italic” in the music room. We will get to know it, deepen it, let it dance and become one with it. It skilfully adapts to your own handwriting, is diverse and adaptable. That's why we leave the given structures in order to make them vibrate with tension springs and pointed springs as well as with veneer. We use the “Cola Pen”, which we make ourselves, to create personal stationery. On it we write “what touches our heart” in order to let go of thoughts or hold on to them. Finally, we let them go to send our lines on their journey.

Playing the piano is a musical activity with a comprehensive experiential dimension. This dimension of experience forms a unity of motor elements and mental and emotional phenomena. It does not make sense to separate the technical and motor aspects in their diversity from the experience of music, because “technology” and music are not opposites but rather form an inseparable unity. Some aspects of this workshop will be:
Speed in runs, arpeggios and irregular passages
Thirds, sixths, octaves
Strength and endurance
Security in performance
Memory
Sound
Movement-weight-precision
Dynamics and their designWith this in mind, we will discuss the problems of virtuosity from the holistic aspect of musical creation. Please prepare 2-3 works for the course that we can work on as examples. The course is aimed at pianists who are looking for support in the artistic design of their pieces. Ana-Marija Markovina explained the pedagogical basis for this course in her book “GLÜCKS-Spiel” (Staccato-Verlag).
Ana-Mirija Markovina is supported in her educational work by the pianist Paula Muthig - the course participants therefore have two professional contacts at their disposal.
C-Level: at least 3 years of playing experience. In terms of playing technique, you should at least be able to handle: Chopin: easier waltzes, moderately difficult sonatas by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, inventions by Bach.
D-Level: significantly advanced players with many years of playing experience and experience with technically demanding literature.

The participants can expect a diverse program: Aside from one-on-one lessons, ensemble playing and various workshops (body percussion, among others), there is also the opportunity to dive into the world of improvisation. For all those who already have improvisation experience, this course will serve as a guide to broaden the knowledge in the fields of blues, funk and jazz standard improvisation. At a jam session on Saturday evening, everybody will have the opportunity to try out what has been learned with the support of a professional band. Also, you will get to see an instrument exhibition hosted by YAMAHA and Musik Aktiv from Spittal/Drau. The newest instruments, mouthpieces and much more can be tested right then and there.
