MEDITATION AND SINGING

IN LUNIGIANA

 

Spiritual Retreats 

and Meditative Singing

for Male Voices 

in Northern Tuscany 

 ITALY - EU

 

 

M.S.L. (Meditative Singers Lunigiana) is a male vocal group ‘a cappella’, practicing meditation and meditative singing. The group is still being formed and open to new members, also for retreats of several days, especially for those coming from outside Italy.


Meditation, anchored to the breathing cycle, determines a mix of relaxation and concentration that allows to acquire a growing awareness in the use of breath and vocal muscles. Meditative singing is characterized by a slow or moderate tempo and by a sense of intimate recollection, close to the dimension of silence. Special emphasis is given to the energetic process of the sound and to the transformative potential of the singing mind. 

Once rid of expectations attached to a performance and lowered into the meditation practice, meditative singing reveals its nature as an inner journey, between spirituality and physicality of the human voice.

 

 Our retreats are open to international guests and to both beginners and experts of this form of meditation. 

They are held in English, French and Italian.There is no need to have experience playing an instrument nor to be able to read music.They take place all year round in the natural setting of the Lunigiana mountains,1.200 m above sea level and 25 km from the Mediterranean Sea.This area offers trails of considerable interest for nature lovers.
