Harmony College Team 2023
Grunts come from the rehearsal room. A crow "answers" from outside. Truly unusual sounds produced by EKBC singers and singer friends. But it's all in good fun: Kerstin Greaves, singer, coach and certified CVT trainer, asked to try out sound effects like have been systematically described in the "Complete Vocal Technique".
The last time Kerstin and the "boys" from EKBC met in Berlin, in the context of the joint concert with the Women in Black. The agreement to soon pass on her knowledge to the choir in a workshop led to this additional date of her current coaching tour.
So will all the EKBC singers sing like Louis Armstrong in the future? Of course not, but effects can and should be used in a targeted way to make the choir's performance more varied and attractive. Certainly, there is still a lot of work to be done before they can be produced as skillfully as Kerstin demonstrated.
The unanimous verdict of the participants: The workshop has shown us a door to new vocal possibilities, but of course we have to go through it ourselves, and that is what we want to do!
This summer all young singers between the ages of 16 and 25 can look forward to a special treat: BinG! is hosting the A CAPPELLA YOUTH CAMP for the first time!
Since the possibilities in the internal part of our website have meanwhile become so versatile that the overview was in danger of being lost, we have now created another organisation instead of the entries in the lower - dark grey - area of the menu and further links in the footer area of the pages:
From 3rd to 5th of April 2020 BinG! organises the bi-annual, international Barbershop Music Festival for the 15th time. This time again in Dortmund's Konzerthaus!

On 05.10.2018 the BinG! general meeting has elected a new BinG! board. After the 2-year term of General Manager Franziska Dickhut ended, she did not let herself be put up for election again. President Gabriele von Rauch and treasurer Anna Taferner resigned outside of their term of office.
