ImproVox
Martin Swinger is one of an ensemble of 5 professional musicians called ImproVox. They are dedicated to exploring and refining the art of vocal improvisation. ImproVox offers a workshop of 60 minutes to 4 hours on the art of vocal improvisation. ImprovVox introduces simple singing ‘games’ then scaffold into more complex forms which offer opportunities for large group, small ensemble and solo improvisation.
Recently Martin contacted me and let me know that National Education Association grant that is available ($2000-5000) to support implementation of programs to introduce musical improvisation in the high school curriculum. This is a grant that schools must apply for, and it is a program that ImproVox offers.
