Nu Mu festival: Paris Kern improvisational vocal ensemble

About this event

7pm Circle Signing: Join Paris Kern for a playful and inspiring exploration of group singing. Paris co-founded VoiceExchange, an improvisational vocal ensemble in the Washington, D.C area based on a program started by Bobby McFerrin. As McFerrin describes it, it’s like finding a language you’ve always known: a space to finally express yourself, surrounded by others doing the same. Explore your voice, expand your rhythm and melody, and sing the “here and now.” It’s playful, freeing, and deeply connecting—an imperfect, vibrant experience of belonging through sound.
