The legendary Czech vocalist and violinist is coming to Montague!

“Iva Bittová is an extraordinary artist. Raw and refined, passionate and contained, she has the soul of a gypsy, the voice of a troubadour, and the mind of a genius.”
– NPR/All Things Considered

“… a forward thinking composer who sings and plays violin simultaneously… Her sound is invigorating, urgent, and also soothing; it is a fusion of Old World and new-music sensibilities, infused with the spirit and language of Czech, Slovak, and Moravian music.”–New York Magazine

At times it feels like channeling. There is never any artifice, like you are drinking straight from the source. She's really like no one else. It's often hard to know where compositions end and improvisations begin.

Workshop info: If you're a vocalist you should DEFINITELY go, but instrumentalists are also invited to attend. All levels are welcome. (If you like to sing, go!) It won't focus on technique as much as on improvisation, being present, and finding your authentic voice.
