QUIERO SER PARTE

In his playful, energetic and highly participatory workshop led by singer and educator Maca Robledo,  you’ll experience how simple gestures, deep listening, and collective vocal improvisation can transform a group of individuals into a living musical organism. Together we’ll discover how music can emerge through shared attention, collaboration, and spontaneous musical decisions—without sheet music, without verbal instructions, and without previous improvisation experience. No sheet music, no pressure—just listening, connection, creativity, and lots of fun.

Rhythm with Signs is a gestural language created by Argentine musician and composer Santiago Vázquez for facilitating collective musical improvisation in real time. Today it is practiced in more than 30 countries in professional musical, educational, therapeutic, and community settings, offering an accessible and inspiring way to create music together.

Together we’ll explore

  • Rhythm through gesture and voice
  • Collective vocal improvisation
  • Deep listening and group awareness
  • Musical communication without words
  • Creativity within simple structures
  • Flow, playfulness, and collaboration

You will leave with

  • The joy of creating music together in real time
  • Greater confidence in collective improvisation
  • Stronger listening and coordination skills
  • A deeper sense of rhythm and groove
  • The experience of co-creating music through attention, trust, and collaboration
  • A new perspective on music as a living, collective process

 

Open to singers, musicians, and curious singing enthusiasts alike.

 

No previous experience in vocal improvisation is required—only a willingness to listen, participate, and play.
