In this course, students will learn the basics of vocal technique including: mechanics of the vocal instrument; preparation for singing (warm-ups); airflow (breathing); tone creation & placement; vocal maintenance; musicianship for the singer; & more. Using a "learn by doing" approach, students will be singing during each class, employing many genres of music. The basics of harmony & duet singing will be introduced. Even if you have taken a Group Voice class in the past, the curriculum has been re-designed. If you love to sing, this class has something for you! (This is not CHOIR! The emphasis is on developing the individual singer.)
Each 30 minute lesson is individually designed for the student & will include one-on-one training in vocal technique as well as vocal performance coaching.
