Cooperative Vers(us)e

Creating lyrics together as a team and singing in canon.

AIM

Helps group dynamics, improves creativity and vocality.

Description

Everybody stands in the circle. The facilitator explains the task.
The participants have to figure out short lyrics.
Possible variations depending on the abilities and motivation of the groups:
– use well known songs – change the lyrics
– use only the lyrics without music, only rhythm like rap
– create your own music as well along with the lyrics

The facilitator divides the group of ~4 small groups.
The lyrics they created has to be singed as follows:
First group starts singing the first verse.
When first group finishes the first line, the second group starts singing the song from the beginning.
When second group finishes the first line, the third group starts singing the song from the beginning.
And so on…

For example:

1st group – La La LA La La     – Le Le LE Le Le       – Lu Lu LU Lu Lu

2nd group                                – La La LA La La      – Le Le LE Le Le

3rd group                                                                  – La La LA La La
