Lovely. Thanks

Thanks for posting!

This song brings back great memories, very nice!

really enjoying this content... I want to learn the song properly but struggling to find the word? Michele could you add the words in the caption or even in a comment?

your lessons are amazing❤

Thank you for this wonderful lesson! :- ) And I really like your end quote, it's a good mantra

I'm a Bulgarian. Oddly enough, we don't learn this at school and I happened to live in an age, where my grandparents were too much looking to the future, in order to transmit what was in the past. I have had some musical training in my youth, but I've never been able to sing a folk song properly. I'm pondering going to lessons, but since I'm with a small child, I can't do it now. So these lessons are my greatest joy now! Thank you for making these and being so interested in our culture! 🥰

❤❤❤❤❤ thank you, you are amazing

Lovely! Thank yOu!

How beautiful! Are you still singing together? I would LOVE to join!

thanks so much for this! sorry you can’t make it

I wish I could go, but alas I cannot. Michele is a wonderful teacher and every time she is in the Kitka lineup I am thrilled. Also, this camp which started out as a CCC built camp in the 1930's is beautiful. I spent many summers in the farthest camp in which in those days was YWCA camp Timbertall. The camps are deep in the Redwood Forest by a river. You won't be sorry if you go.

This is wonderful. I've used it for my UCLA class. Thank you so much!

FANTASTIC!!! BRAVO!!!

This was amazing, I can't wait to do the rest! Thank you so much!

Thank you for this! I’ve been searching for Bulgarian vocal ressources because the layers of harmonies have really interested me and there’s little information :)

Thank you!!😍🌹🙏 Especially in this Covid Times was Hard to meet People/Teachers needed some work like this before my first Recital after 2Years!!!I will be singing a Bulgarian Song as well

This is gorgeous. Is it Macedonian?

So beautiful. I'm going to sing with you next time as I have this song in my Kitka song folder. Can anyone recommend how to get people to synchronize? I teach a simple class one evening a week on Zoom, but we can't sing together as it doesn't synch. I'd love to be able to have us be able to hear and sing w/each other as our group has been going since 1974.

Can you give the name of the songs you use? You are a great teacher, Michele. Because of time constraints I can only do about 5 minutes at a time. But you are so clear and you repeat, so I get what I can. Thanks.

Great, Michele. Glad to know that Stockton Folkdance Camp is still going. I had a scholarship to attend back in the 1960's. Passed out from the heat and we all stayed up till 3AM dancing. When I came home I felt like I could fly; I could elevate so much farther than when I arrived. Great experience. We also sang every day. Aloha from Sandi in Oakland 2022.

Michele Simon is a marvelous singer with Kitka for years. anything she teaches is well worth learning.

Oh, how wonderful. Thank you all.

Wow! Respect.

Благодаря ви много.

I love learning this because I love to do a cover versions of pop songs that will incorporate this vocal style. Glad to learn a lot from you.. thank you.

Oh my gosh, your lesson is so enjoyable and helpful, and the comments so nice, I wish we could all gather for some tea and chat and sing :)

OMG Michele, I am looking for such a long time to learn singing Bulgarian music, which I adore🥰. THANX for this marvelous session. i am singing for more than 40 years, but this was so good to reach this forward area sound room. and because I am used to learn mainly by listening, brilliant!!🙏

When I was a in high school in Serbia our music teacher was teaching us these techniques when we were learning our ethnic singing. Etncis singing used to be performed by women in village's when they gathered for some socialising. Usually they would tread the wool or do some needle work or knitting. All Slavic countries use this type of signing.

June 2021 and practising along with you, thanks so much

Really fun!!

Lovely lesson, thank you! Greetings from Romania 🤗

This was an incredible lesson!

Thanks! your fans are also looking for Zabava Kolo Festival set 1

Thank you very much for your lessons! I watched all the videos. This is very valuable information and you explain it very well. I sing Russian and Balkan folk songs and teach traditional singing. Your workshops were very helpful, thank you!

Dear Michele, I am so glad to find your video. Appreciate your bright, joyful and expressive energy! And I checked out Kitka Women's Vocal Ensemble. Love love it!!! I have been loving Balkan singing when I heard a choir in Australia 20 years ago. It's a deep spiritual connection for me. But I couldn't find more resource to do further study. I used to form a small women group and learned a few songs from CDs, but it's not easy. You can imagine how much I am longing for that voice connection. :) I am a performing artist and teacher from Taiwan. (My music group www.amovingsound.com ) It's interesting that I have done and taught similar exercise that you guided in this video without knowing the Balkan vocal technique. Would love to know more about you and learn more from you!

Your lessons are so enjoyable!

Thank you

This is fantastic! Thank you for this opportunity to learn from you!!

Here's one of the songs I'm teaching at Stockton Folkdance Camp starting Monday 7/13/20

i love the way you teach too much respect

Thank you very much god bless you

Thank you so much for sharing this! I am excited to watch the rest of the series :)
