CPR Projects - Lectures, Lecture-Demonstrations, Talks and Seminars
LOCATED IN WALES working nationally and internationally
CPR curates a wide-range of lectures and talks throughout the year, often as part of festivals and conferences.
Giving Voice International Festival, 2010
10th - 14th November, Pontedera, Italy
A festival of extraordinary voices from around the world.
Giving Voice springs from a strong belief in the voice’s ability to communicate beyond language and cultural difference, and that working with the voice can allow people, from wherever they come, to enjoy and value the riches of difference as well as the recognition and celebration of a common humanity.
Giving Voice is an established biennial international event mounted in Wales by the Centre for Performance Research (CPR). It aims to advance the appreciation and understanding of the expressive voice and celebrate its many and varied manifestations across time and culture. Sharing ideas and practice through workshop, performance, and discussion, the festival brings together those - performers, teachers, scholars, healers - who have an interest in the voice but who may not necessarily meet in the usual course of their practice.
From the 10th - 14th November 2010 a special edition of Giving Voice will hosted by
Theatre Pontedera, Italy
To register your interest in the project please contact us by email and a full programme of events will be sent to you as soon as it is available.
