As part of the Morgenland Festival Osnabrück, a singing
workshop with Iva Bittová will take place at the Kunsthalle Osnabrück.
The workshop is called: I believe in the freedom of the voice.
Iva Bittová is an exceptional musician at the interface of classical,
traditional music and jazz. Accompanying herself on the violin, she
takes the audience close to the origin of voice and song. In her music,
she incorporates influences from her Jewish and Hungarian Roma families
and blends them into her own form of avant-garde, which is also inspired
by the minimal music of her adopted country, the USA. There she founded
Žingora - School of Voice, a singing school that is also open
to amateurs and has become a centre for communal singing. Bittová brings
this experience with her to Osnabrück, in keeping with her motto: “I
believe in the freedom of the voice.”
