SING YOUR HEART OUT IN FIJI 2026

August 2-9 2026 

I’m running the week-long course at the lovely First Landing Beach Resort on the main island, Viti Levu. We’ll sing every day, hang out at the beach, eat good food, visit local choirs and villages, exchange songs and just be plain relaxed and creative. My friend Andrew Davis, who grew up in Fiji, has put this event together; he has previously run four very successful singing tours to Fiji with me, and with Rachel Hore (BigSing Community)  and Tina Broad (the Glorious MUDsingers) and others.

A MUSICAL ADVENTURE IN MOROCCO 2026

August 30 -September 18

Following the success of our Moroccan tour of 2025, we’re offering another in 2026: guided tours of mosques, casbahs, gardens and other cultural areas unique to Morocco, relish sumptuous tagines, sing in beautiful environments, party in Marrakech and Essaouira and spend a night or two in the Sahara desert. Tony will lead you in chants and songs from the USA, Africa and around the world. We will also get to experience the various colours of local music; female ensembles performing Sufi chants, the intoxicating groove of traditional Gnaoua music (see the above photo of the Sand Pigeons), the muezzin’s call to prayer, the desert blues of the Amazigh etc
