Course of Events

First, participants of the event get to know their workshop leaders in a short musical staging. Shortly after they are introduced to their new musical task. The corporate team is divided into different individual workshops with various musical groups and tasks. There they are trained under the expert guidance of professional musicians and workshop leaders in a contagious crash course. One of the groups produces the basic sound in a mobile recording studio, while the next group writes and sings or raps the lyrics to a song with company content. In addition to creation of the song includes "solos" that will be implemented by the other workshop groups in form of Brazilian, Spanish, African and Cuban salsa rhythms and various instrumentations. In Addition a dance performance group can also be coached in a workshop.

Fun and energy guaranteed!


  • Developing a melody and choreography with colored sound bars    [ mehr Informationen ]

    Workshop: Boomwhacker

    In this workshop, the so-called BOOMWHACKERS are handed to the participants. BOOMWHACKERS are sound bars, which produce different high tones through their different length, and thus become a melodic instrument.

    The group is divided into 3-6 groups and creates a common tonal rhythm with the BOOMWHACKERS, which is used in one of the solo passages of the song.

  • Song creation, various pop instruments and recording studio technique    [ mehr Informationen ]

    Workshop: Recording Studio

    In this workshop, participants produce the basic arrangement, which serves as the basis for the collective song.

    The workshop participants are introduced to the musical work in the studio. The participants themselves such as drums, guitar and keyboard up to DJ-scratching carry out the input of the instruments at hand. The mobile recording studio provides professional recording technology, as well as various other musical instruments and various technical musical possibilities.

    This workshop is the foundation for the overall arrangement. It can be omitted optionally. In this case a playback is produced beforehand which serves as the basis for the other workshops.

  • Movement and choreography to the rhythm of the team song

The number of workshops is understood optionally, from two groups up to 10 workshops. The workshops are suitable for 10 to 2,000 people according to scale and what is desired. Location, number of participants as well as budget is adjustable accordingly. The optimal duration of the workshops is between 1.5 - 3 hours.


Song Production

The song production is to be adjusted in advance regarding terms of musical, stylistic and textual content.


Sustainability

The team song will have a lasting emotional impact. The song is sung and whistled by the participants even months afterwards as the musical phenomenon of a catchy tune takes effect. The workshop and/or production can also be documented on DVD, CD. The main melody of the song, the chorus, can also be produced as a mobile ring tone - as a follow-up for participants.
