ARTICULATION

Denmark Festival of Voice celebrates its 21st year and to mark this achievement, the program is directing focus to the many elements that make up a voice. 

 

It is the voice that can sound a little fragile, ethereal, elusive, or impractical but don't loose 'sound' of whose voice it is.... yours maybe?

 

Voice, simply put, is the person behind the words and sounds that speaks, sings, converses. We tend to focus on receiving/listening to the voice, or how what is said makes us feel. What about hearing truths, what about feeling emotions?

Festival of voice will deliver joy, laughter, truths, sorrow, astonishment and maybe give you goosebumps.

The Denmark Festival of Voice is not your average music festival. Held in the beautiful south coastal town of Denmark, Western Australia, the festival is one of only two dedicated vocal festivals in Australia. The festival explores diversity, celebrating voices from near and far and those from the edge. Music is only one part of the program alongside storytelling, spoken word, poetry and experimental performance.
