EVDIV 231 - Solid Singing for All Performers: A Reliable Vocal Technique for Every Genre
Kurt Alakulppi, Andrea Covais, Tharanga Goonetilleke, Jane Olian
In this course, students are taught a healthy, versatile vocal technique, work on performance skills, and are encouraged to explore the rich literature of opera, art song, musical theater, and the Great American Songbook. Each class begins with a vocal warm-up, and the remaining time is spent on repertoire assigned to each individual singer. Students will be assigned repertoire that supports and encourages their technical growth and development as effective, communicative singing artists. Designed to address the needs of vocalists at all stages of development, Extension voice classes are comprised of participants selected from auditions and placed according to prior training and experience.
