As well as my regular choirs, I run one-day or weekend workshops, for both existing choirs, or open to all. If you would like to book me for a one day or weekend workshop, for harmony singing, stagecraft or group composition, then please do get in touch. It doesn’t have to be for an established choir – although those workshops work well – but if you have a network of singers in mind, then we can work together on the theme and publicity!
I usually teach my own material, either my own compositions or arrangements. I also take commissions for arrangements – if there is a particular song your choir would like to add to their repertoire, or are interested in what arrangements I already have available, get in touch! kirstymartin@me.com
The songs I teach in workshops are from a diverse repertoire and over 25 years collecting and creating material. A day workshop usually consists of a mixture of original compositions and arrangements – both by me and my favourite composers / arrangers. A lot of my own material is based on existing poems and writing, from to Basho to Brecht to Bragg!
