Circle Song: Improvised Body Music

Invitation

We are the instruments.
A participatory, improvised, embodied practice that reconnects us to one another through rhythm, voice, and play.

This is a guided yet fully improvised experience, using the facilitation tools and methods of Musica do Circulo. No prior experience is required, only an openness to connect with other humans in your own fun, light and authentic way.

Circle songs are an invitation into a fully immersive, fully improvised musical experience using vocals, body percussion and movement. It draws inspiration from musical embodied rhythm practices from around the world, including call-and-response singing, rhythmic clapping games and circle song traditions.

"We are doing something that is so human and so needed, something that we've forgotten." - Igor, circle participant May 2025

Simply by standing in a circle and connecting with our bodies as our instruments, we are reminded that we can find joy and meaning right here in this present moment, and in the next.
