DRAMA 6236-46 — Singing

2 credits
Fall and Spring
Deborah Lapidus and David Gaines

This course is designed to help the actor release their voice and find deeper expressivity and truth through singing. To that end, we work on building a sense of physical and vocal awareness. We focus on elements of singing such as vocal placement, resonance, breath, relaxation, and posture. The actor also learns how to function and be expressive within the form of a song. To that end, we work on the vocal, textual, and musical elements that go into a fully realized song performance. Each class includes a vocal warm-up and individual work on a song.
