We will meet at 15:00 on the day of the recording,
And will start shortly after.
We'll provide coffee and food.
If you want to snack or drink some coffee make sure to arrive slightly earlier, e.g. 14:45.
Please be on time as it is important that we start humming all at the same time.
We will be humming Happy Birthday as performed in this video.
Adam Fields is a chiropractor based in CA. Conversely, he's a Youtube Star.
When you arrive we'll try different paces to find our common rhythm.
The song should be hummed in loops without interruption or break between them.
You will be divided in four different vocal range groups:
soprano
alto
tenor
bass
Each group will have a microphone set-up for recording.
The most important is to start humming all at the same time.
You can leave the formation at any time.
If desired it is possible to hum for 20 minutes an hour or even longer.
The time, work, and energy that you want to give is up to you.
Little by little the choir will dwindle until the last person leaves the room.
When you leave be as quiet as possible.
We will find a system for the door to stay ajar and easy to access.
The recording will be used for a 4-channel sound installation. Please only join if you agree.
If needed, I can provide contracts or signed agreements. I cannot offer financial compensation for your participation.
I would be happy to help you in return with any project you might have. Do not hesitate to reach out.
We still need a few more hummers. If you have some friends who might be interested,
please share this call sheet with them.
Let me know if you can't make it and if I can keep your contact.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Best,
Emma R. F. B.
