RIDINA AHMEDOVÁ: Workshop for teachers, VOICE – A RESONANT RELATIONSHIP
The voice is a tool that is always close at hand; when we sing together, we spontaneously begin to cooperate and create a joint work based on mutual relationships. We can also explore what our sounding group actually looks like and how it works: Which role suits us better – being a soloist? Or a reliable and serving member of a functional organism? Do we need a secure order, or does the possibility of deviating from established rules motivate us?
The voice workshop creates space for self-discovery and for experiencing music that is created on the basis of surprisingly simple tasks. It is suitable for all interested parties, including complete beginners.
By gradually moving from silence and breathing to listening to their own voices, games, and exercises, participants will arrive (often to their own surprise) at singing as a natural continuation of their joint work.
BIO
Ridina Ahmedová is a musician, performer, and author of audio documentaries.
In 2021, her documentary radio series Sádlo (www.rozhlas.cz/sadlo) sparked a heated social debate, and a solo theater performance of the same name was created. The wave of reactions and personal testimonies from listeners led to the founding of Moje tělo je moje (www.mojetelojemoje.cz), which is dedicated to raising awareness and educating people about preventing body shaming and promoting a healthy body image.
In 2023, Ridina released her second award-winning audio documentary series, Odpustit? (Forgive?), which was nominated for the Prix Europa 2024 award for best European audio documentary.
Ridina also continues to pursue music and is a member of the Hlaskontrabas Oktet, which released the CD Kaleidoscapes in 2024 (nominated for the Anděl Award in the jazz category and winner of the ČRo Jazz poll for best jazz album of 2024).
She is a graduate of the Faculty of Humanities at Charles University and also studied music therapy at the University of West Bohemia.
