Offerings | Elias Wolf Music

Whether we are in hope or in despair, singing can transform the energy in our bodies, rippling outward to shift the energy in the collective.

Private Sessions

SINGING AND MUSIC ARE INHERENT IN ALL OF US. TAP INTO THE MAGIC!

I have been teaching private music lessons for 20 years. My style is warm, student-centered, trauma-informed, and custom-tailored to meet your needs, goals and dreams. I serve as guide and teacher, with an intention to move at the speed of trust, exploring the instrument that is your voice and body. Our work can include:

Using voice as a tool for nervous system support
Healthy singing technique
Finding a sound that is authentically YOU!
Repertoire and artistry development
Healing wounds of not-enoughness
Improvising to liberate the voice and body
Songwriting as a tool for expression and affirmation
Musicians/keyboard/composition skills

What People Are Saying

“elias creates a safe space to unpack all the vulnerabilities and sensitivities that come with singing for me. They are absolutely present and so very knowledgeable. I feel safely held and guided.”

“elias is an incredible teacher. They were able to connect with me and meet me where I was at – even over zoom and across the Pacific Ocean. elias’ humour, warmth and technical knowledge helped me gain confidence in my ability to sing. They also helped me recognize, and be comfortable with, the areas where I can improve. I highly recommend elias as a singing teacher!”

– Eric

“elias is caring, patient, creative, and enthusiastic – all the qualities you want in an instructor! They have been an absolute delight to work with, always personalizing their teaching approach to make me feel comfortable and successful.

Queer Choir

Voice, body, interdependence + queer joy as resistance to tyranny.

Queer Choir is an intergenerational and re-humanizing community choir for queer, trans and gender-expansive humans, singing for radical joy, queer kinship and collective liberation. Queer Choir makes space for queers of all backgrounds to reclaim and rejoice in their body as instrument while leaning into the magic of harmony-singing as interdependence. There is no audition for Queer Choir, and we do not use SATB voicing.

Sing with us

Emergent Song

What begins to unfold when we let go of fixed melody, rhythm, and lyric—and instead meet each other in the moment through improvised, embodied harmony-singing?

Each Emergent Song session is a space of aliveness, creative risk, and co-regulated resonance. We root in our bodies, tune to the moment, and co-create music none of us could make alone. Together we explore form and freedom—sometimes marrying improvised movement with voice —sounding from center, from edges, from in-between. Bringing warmth, grace and humor, elias also incorporates Vocal River forms taught to them by their mentor, master improvisation teacher Rhiannon (Alive! Bobby McFerrin, Gimme 5).

What People Are Saying

“elias’ beautiful facilitation of singing circles is nothing short of musical alchemy – elias creates spaces that are warm, safe, welcoming, and courageous, melding music and message in deep, meaningful ways.”

– Angela

“Emergent Song is a playground for the voice. There is space to be silly and serious, melodic and dissonant, authentic and imperfect. In every moment, we sing what arises, from heart. I am always surprised by what emerges from the particular combination of people in that one unique moment of authentic creative expression. Miracles happen.”

– Jess

“elias creates space that allows me to be my freest self. They remind me through music that I can be playful, bold, and connected. In this space I get to witness how we heal each other, and we need examples of that to see the world we want.”

– Nani

“I feel a sense of freedom and hopefulness in these sessions. elias’ authentic style allows everyone to be their true selves and the sharing and connecting is powerful and heartfelt. I leave each session satisfied from the bountiful meal of song and kindness that has been served!”

– Jessica

Connect on Patreon

Becoming a patreon subscriber is a meaningful way to engage with my creative work. I am increasingly removing myself from social media as a way to divest from platforms sponsored by greedy billionaires, and that ultimately feel like they foster more of a sense of disconnection and loneliness in me. When you become a patreon subscriber, you get early access to new songs and videos, as well as exclusive content including improvised songs, love letters, photos, behind-the-scenes stories and pieces of creative expression too sacred to share more widely. It is a sweet way to connect. In reciprocity, you can get tapped into cool rewards! For as little as $3/month you can join the community, and you get 10% off if you subscribe for a year up front.
