Singing
Workshops
Who
are Singing Workshops for?
Everybody!
If we can speak, we can also sing... or learn to sing. Some are
fortunate to be born with a great voice; for others it takes courage
and effort to 'discover' their singing voice, but singing is the most
universal and natural expression of music we have at our disposal and
is a wonderfully rewarding way to take part in music making.
Friends, parents and other family
members are all warmly encouraged to come along.
What happens at a Singing Workshop?
A number of varied activities, suitable for all ages (6 upwards) and
all abilities. A professional coach will provide insight and
encouragement to help all participants advance their skills, whatever
their starting-point.
Activites will include:-
- How to warm up your voice
- Extending your vocal range
- Projecting your voice
- Tone production
- Part-singing (e.g. rounds)
- Harmony singing
- An informal 'performance'
of a short piece, prepared during the workshop
Nothing to
be afraid of!
Staff who tutor our Workshops are always sensitive to the individual
strengths and weaknesses of each participant. You will not be expected
to sing a solo (unless you want to) - all activities will be en masse. Through participating to
the best of your ability you will gain in confidence and skill, and
perhaps even discover the Pavarotti within!
