Communicate through Singing

Masterclass for Singers


This class is open to all aspiring solo singers whether experienced or inexperienced, confident or reticent and of any  age. In a friendly, positive atmosphere, singers will perform to the class and receive advice on technique, musicality, language, interpretation and presentation and will be encouraged to find and communicate the meaning of what they  sing.


Singers should bring repertoire of their own choice, whether it be songs or arias (or both) - all languages are welcomed.   There will be time to work on four items at least during the week and perhaps as many as six.


Students will be able to rehearse their pieces with the class accompanists usually immediately before their class lesson.

 

The course will give two public concerts at the end of the week.
