Harmony Magic
|
May 22rd - 29th 2020
Paros Creative Holidays has welcomed acclaimed choir-leader and award-winning songwriter, Helen Yeomans for five successful years to lead a 'Harmony Magic' week where participants are skillfully brought together to sing beautiful songs in harmony! Dates now announced for a repeat in 2020. The repertoire of music will be broad, covering simple chants, gospel rockers, world music and some of Helens heart-felt original songs for which she has become well-loved. Even those of you who have never sung before will be amazed at the sound you can make - Helen has been described before as an 'alchemist'! |

Says Helen "In all my years of teaching songs I have very rarely come across anyone who really struggles with singing. Not only can the vast majority of people sing in tune but sing in harmony too. It's one of the most rewarding aspects of my work to bring people out of their shell and express themselves through their voice".
Helen will also offer the opportunity to help her group choose a song to arrange in a special Song Arranging workshop. So if you've always wanted to sing an acappella harmony version of Bob Marley / Adele, here's your chance!'Helen Yeomans is the founder and leader of Glorious Chorus. She writes and/or arranges all the songs that the choir sings and runs workshops around the UK and abroad teaching her award-winning compositions. She recently won a prize in a prestigious UK songwriting contest. Helen is also the director of Thula Mama Ltd, teaching songs to mothers and babies, and has franchised groups around the UK.
