Musical Theater Vocal Workshop

For ages 15 and up
In this in-person workshop students will learn concepts of singing musical theater from picking the right song that fits their voice, range, and performance techniques of the solo musical theater vocal repertoire. Students will work one on one with a university-trained vocal instructor in a masterclass setting to workshop their songs through vocal technique. At every class session, each student will have the opportunity to perform their songs for the class. Students will have the opportunity to privately coach with both the voice instructor and accompanist during the class sessions. Students will perform their performance ready songs in a live closing concert . This is a judgment-free and relaxed environment where all students are encouraged (regardless of level), and an atmosphere created that allows all students embrace their performances with freedom, agility, and meaning.
