Musical Improv Games - Song Circle

Picture

Good for:

Putting together a whole song.  Improvising as a group.  Feeling different song structures

Method:

  • A topic is suggested or the music starts to play.
  • Someone walks across the circle towards another player singing an improvised "line" of a song
  • The other player then walks towards someone else singing the second "line"
  • This continues until the song is finished.
  • This is a great sandbox for trying out literally anything!  Songs are negotiated by the whole group.  
  • Choruses can be sung all together.

Tips:

  • Can you pre-decide a song structure you are trying to achieve?
  • Can you make a chorus really stand out?
  • Try to really 'Yes and' the previous line rather than deciding what you are going to sing way in advance.
