Jardiner en chantant

The Maison du Jardinage et du Compostage invites you to a « jardiner en chantant » (gardening while singing) workshop.

Whether to pace walking, dancing, or agricultural work, or simply to entertain oneself during strenuous tasks, singing was an essential component of rural life before the invention of mechanized agriculture.

This workshop invites you to (re)discover songs that accompany the work of the land in every sense of the word, and to rebuild ties between these two activities that were once inseparable.

Loïc Heurteaut is an actor and singer specializing in Breton music. Passionate about the connection between life and music in traditional societies worldwide, he leads folk dances and festoù-noz in several bands, and has regularly offered singing workshops since 2022.

The workshop is open to all; prior singing experience is not required.
