"Ágról Ágra" is a project of the Libero Canto School of Singing. With its roots in 1930s Hungary, Libero CantoTM is a holistic, process-oriented approach to vocal pedagogy. It is called, “the path to free singing” (la via al libero canto), because the goal is to liberate people who wish to sing from physical, emotional, or mental constraints, so that they can make music through singing with ease, grace, honesty, and joy. Teachers and students of the Libero Canto Approach have presented numerous concert projects throughout Europe and the greater New York area that encompass the music of composers such as Monteverdi, Pergolesi, Handel, Beethoven, Brahms and many more!
