Il Cuore Canta (The Heart Sings) is an annual workshop and concert series arising out of the *Libero Canto Szamosi approach to teaching singing. The project, now in its fourth year, is intended for young classical singers who wish for greater freedom of expression, ease of vocal production, and depth of musical experience. A guiding principle of the Szamosi approach is that breathing and giving voice are inborn, primary functions that are governed far below the level of conscious control. The physical and emotional spontaneity of these physiological functions is the necessary foundation for optimal singing. Through releasing excess tension and deepening musical imagination, singing becomes freer, easier, and more genuinely expressive.
