Margret
emphasises songs (as opposed to sounds/music/poetry or isolated vocal
techniques), and always in a social, cultural, historical, geographical
&/or political context. Learning is by hearing and doing (rather than
reading), and participants are encouraged to attempt most of the parts,
aimed at acquiring the skills and repertoire to incorporate singing more
actively into their daily lives.
