Book Review:
|
|
In this little gem of a book, Francesca Genco extends a forthright and generous invitation to each of us to expand our soul-singer selves in deep, playful, and liberating ways. Offering a plethora of simple, powerful exercises, she literally
en-courages the vocal explorer to replace ambition with curiosity and judgment with attention and presence. Francesca wisely situates our human body-voices within the polyrhythmic symphony of all of nature—in itself a radically healing act—and shows us the way, through embodied singing, to engender the kind of vibrant, empowering community for which we long.
