Song circles, singing for wellbeing, postnatal mental health, singing with children, singing walks.
Emily leads small song circles and singing walks in and around Edinburgh with a focus on wellbeing, simplicity and connection with nature.
Emily believes in the deep power of singing and song for wellbeing and is particularly keen to promote intergenerational singing and encouraging families to sing together and share songs themselves.
Emily co-leads The Song Circle group in Edinburgh with her wife Alba Luscombe.
The Song Circle is a welcoming drop-in singing group to come together and learn beautiful, simple songs and harmonies taught by ear. All songs are simple to learn and are taught on the day – this group is for anyone and everyone who enjoys singing.
We begin each session with a stretch and vocal warm up before we begin. In total there will be an hour and a half of singing, with a break halfway for a cup of tea.
Every session is different with changing songs, seasons and themes (as well as voices and faces!) We sing a variety of songs at each session, which are from all over the world; some are new, some old. Their common thread is that they are simple to learn in a short space of time. We will take time to honour the songwriters, stories, history and origins before each song.
You do not need any music or singing experience to come and sing – this group is for anyone and everyone who enjoys singing. Bring your voice!
