The Improvisers' Choir is a group of agile and creative singers from across vocal styles and is lead by composer/conductor Jenni Roditi. The improvisations are led through a system of hand and face signals given by the conductor. The singers come up with their own musical elements, shaped in the moment through the conducting.
