SONGS from the Roztocze region

Led by Agata Harz
For all interested

We will learn about the songs and characteristics of the styles of singers from Western Roztocze, that is the areas of Szczebrzeszyn, Biłgoraj, and Janów Lubelski, whom Agata Harz was lucky enough to meet during her musical peregrinations or heard in archival recordings. We will focus on working on the singing technique and looking for our natural voices – the bases of working on characteristic styles and singing manners from various countries, regions, villages, and particular traditional artists.

Agata Harz – singer, animator, vocalist, and an honorary member of the polish association Dance House. Since the 1990s, she has been working with archaic singing techniques (mostly the “white voice”), learning them directly from the source – the village singers. She successfully uses her knowledge and skills in her educational work. She was the co-organizer of the first Dance House Summer Festivals and the Academy of Wandering Musicians in Narol. Singer of the folk bands Pies Szczeka and Wędrowiec, and performer and vocalist of the legendary avant-garde folk band Księżyc.
