Ágról Ágra is a project of the Libero Canto School of Singing. Libero Canto™ is a holistic, process-oriented approach to vocal pedagogy originally developed in Hungary in the 1930’s by Lajos Szamosi. It’s name comes from “la via al libero canto” (the path to free singing). The Libero Canto Approach helps people to release excess tension and effort, so that they can make music through singing with freedom, honesty, and joy.

Libero Canto is a fiscally sponsored project of the New York Foundation for the Arts.
