MA Voice Pedagogy Cohort A’s Inspirational Final Presentation Weekend
Monday 2nd December 2019
Voice Study Centre
Voice Study Centre's first MA Voice Pedagogy Cohort completed their presentations for their final projects over the weekend and it was so exciting to see the varied research that they have been carrying out!
Our students are making great strides in the field and using their amazing research to benefit others.
