A celebration of song and the connective power of singing in harmony. An opportunity to build community, make some new friends, and raise our powerfully diverse voices as one.No auditions. No commitment. No need for perfection.Just the joy of creating something bigger than ourselves with a room full of beautiful humans!For each choir, we pick a single piece of music to rehearse and sing our hearts out to. In our time together, we'll:Play some fun singing games, warmups, and connection gamesWork through the piece section by sectionBreak down the lyrics and emotions at play in the songShape some key musical momentsRecord some casual rehearsal videos of the piece to share with the greater Gaia communityWhether you're a vocal ensemble veteran or have never sung in a group before, you are welcome here - all experience levels are valued in Gaia Music Collective!OUR SONG THIS TIME AROUNDThis time, we’re singing a new arrangement of Miley Cyrus’ “The Climb". This soaring anthem seems to grow riper with age, a fine wine toasting to the power of honest the process over the end result. This song seems to be born to be sung by a choir, and Matt's arrangement is sure to take it to new heights.I mean... just imagine these lyrics, belted in 4-part harmony:there's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it movealways gonna be an uphill battlesometimes I'm gonna have to loseain't about how fast I get thereain't about what's waiting on the other sideit's the climbThis is a song just waiting to be sung. So let's sing it.LEARNING THE MUSICSheet music and vocal recordings of each part will be available as learning resources before the event, and our collective goal is to practice the parts ahead of time so that we might come into the gathering with ! This way we can spend our time together really diving into the richness of music-making, rather than trying to teach the parts one by one. We don't need to know our parts by heart by any means (and you defffinitely don’t have to memorize it), but the stronger we are in our parts coming in, the more we'll be able to really dig into the fun stuff!(If this style of learning isn't your cup of tea, we have other group singing events where you don't need to prepare at all! Check out our CircleSinging gatherings and House Shows.)LED and FACILITATED BY:This session will be facilitated by our amazing Founder and Lead Facilitator, Matt Goldstein and the amazing Asher Blank!Matt Goldstein (he/him) is an award-winning arranger, facilitator, improviser, songwriter, and educator who is known for his emotive vocal arrangements, soulful singing, heart-forward facilitation, and visionary leadership.
