On Tuesday, we hosted Kim Chandler’s highly anticipated workshop ‘Beyond The Major Scale: Engaging the ear and voice in vocal exercises’.
The workshop focused on introducing vocal melodies based on alternative scales and modes, some of which are more commonly used than the major scale.
Kim demonstrated how relevant, engaging vocal exercises can be created from these patterns.
