SING TO-GATHER AND its MUSICAL PICNICS

Every human being is musical and creative in their own way!

Register of several in-person activities while listening to the interpretation of the composition "Wheat from Chaff", by Fernando Ariani, in an amateur recording made live, during one of these events.

Collective com-position performed remotely (via Meet) throughout the coronavirus pandemic Note: the colors in the moving score represent the authors of lyrics and melodies, as in the header.

Based on this premise, the proposal of the Sing To-Gather and its Musical Picnics project invests in the construction of artistic expressions obtained during the meetings, as an organic consequence of the processes and without a priori anticipation of its results.

After all, "music" is rather a means of communication and interpersonal human expression than an activity within the exclusive reach of individuals endowed with special qualities or, even, an activity solely focused on the execution and consumption of already completed musical pieces!


With these ideas in mind, since the proposal was conceived, what we do is nothing more than... 

... Musicing To-Gather!

And "Musicing" is...

 

to listen,

to play,

to create,

sing,

touch,

find!

 

verbs-actions that happen

to energize us, to move us,

expand, unite, strengthen,

surprise!

 

Playing music together is also

 

listen... listening to yourself!

play... discovering yourself!

create... creating yourself!

sing... enchanting yourself!

find... finding yourself!

Feel free to do something together, whatever it may be,

for example:

- sing, clap or make a sound from an object, turning it into a musical instrument, even if it doesn't have a name yet;

- suggest lyrics;

- a new recipe;

- bring a poster, prop or any other stage element;

- suggest a movement, a dance;

- create a drawing,

- take a photograph, a video;

- put a thought into the circle for an open and unpretentious conversation;

- remain silent;

- observe, see, hear... feel,

- be inspired and inspire...

and, above all:

have the desire to come together and be together,
to open your ears, your mind,
your soul and your heart!

how delicious!..

Possible and genuine expressions of  art and music that each person carries within themselves... 

...in action!

Bon appétit
